Andrea discusses her advanced ovarian cancer

Andrea gives a brilliant account of living with advanced ovarian cancer. She talks quite frankly about her diagnosis and prognosis. Whilst her condition appeared to go into remission for a short time it came back and she is facing more treatment. Despite this, Andie is incredibly upbeat, positive and determined to do as well as possible. She tells how she is still living life to the full, appreciating everything (more than ever before in fact). She discusses the effect on her job as air traffic controller and the support she has received so far. Thank Andie for sharing you amazing account!!

I am a friend of Andi, she was an amazing person. Very sadly this terrible disease claimed her life last year, 2015. Her light shines on.

The book she mentioned is "Evolve Your Brain" by Dr. Joe Dispenza. He became well known due to the movie "What The Bleep Do We Know". Dr. Dispenza was hit by a truck during a bike race. He was told he had to have rods in is back. He chose to go home and visualize his back as healthy, regrowing, repairing the damaged areas. He made a full recovery without surgery.
