From a family with history of cancer, this is timely and relevant for me so I am looking forward to digging into this book to learn and be informed and hopefully be enlightened about this dreaded disease. Thanks to the author for sharing her experience.

Non fiction books are not my cup of tea but I've read the review and it seems very informative and inspiring. The author is very detailed in what should be done or how to behave in case you have the decease. I'm sure the book will find its reader. Congratulations on becoming BOTD!

Many people have suffered while undergoing Western type of treatment. The use of chemicals may have become counterproductive in the quest of getting rid of the disease in our bodies.

In an environment full of toxins, everyone needs to think of natural remedies to either assist in managing the condition or leading a healthy lifestyle.

All in all, I take this opportunity to thank you for your review.
An investment in knowledge pays the best interest.

Wow! Great review!! My mom passed away in 2018 from cancer, due to a brain tumor. I wish I had this info then. I have added this to my WTR list. Thank you so much!

Today's BOTD is one woman's journey with cancer, the steps she took to defeat it, and how she avoided the toxic effects of chemotherapy. This informative read details her process, her endless hours of research, and most importantly, her story of strength, courage, hope, and perseverance. I'm looking forward to hearing her story, as I think many will find it very worth the read. Thank you, again! :-)

I've also had people get better from horrible diseases thanks to naturopathic and holistic medicine. My grandmother, for example, was going to a traditional doctor but her condition kept getting worse, then she went to a naturopathic doctor and she improved. So I would definitely be interested in knowing everything the author did to help with her cancer. Even though no one I know has cancer, it is always valuable information to know. Thanks for the review.

I commend the author for the courage to write this piece and serve as an inspiration to many. I like the fact that the author does not try to force ideas down our throats, rather she only tires to tell, as honest as she can, her experiences in battling cancer.

Wow! I don't know anyone that is suffering or has suffered from cancer, but from all indications, it's a monstrous disease. I can only imagine the fear and pain the author passed through. How thoughtful of her to share her journey of healing with the world, many people will surely benefit from reading her book.

This is the second book that I have read about which extols the power of natural remedies to treat cancer in addition to the drugs that are routinely used by doctors. I also applaud the author's research into homeopathic remedies and the toxins that are in our environment. I think that comparing cancer to a beast like a wolf is a good analogy because cancer takes everything from you and it becomes a literal fight for survival.

'Official Review: What I Did and Do and Why' by Kaiulani Facciani is desirable research on the work of the author for readers! The points stated in the review about the author's fight against her disease of breast cancer are genuine and potent! Also, the point that the book is a wake call for readers is worth mentioning in the review! I like the advice in the review offered for potential readers! Nice to learn that that the author's witty side comments and rhetorical questions are hilarious and delightful in the book!

Congratulations on the latest #BOTD

Cancer is deadly and most times terminal as in the case of the author of this enlightening memoir.

This book encompasses courage, fortitude and strength to needed to fight through trials. It emboldens readers to not take a beaten and stay down accepting defeat but to rise up and fight back even in the face of impossibilities.

I feel so touched by this inspiring memoir by Kaiulani Facciani where she shares her journey through terminal diagnosis and how she survived by combining modern medicine plus naturopathic protocols to keep her alive.

Her zeal to live and explore life even in her darkest hour really opens our eyes to the best approach to live our lives.
