An Inspiring Journey of Self-Healing. Dr. Bernie Siegel called Sandi "a survivor and thriver." In I Chose Love, artist Sandi Gold chronicles her transformative journey from having an inoperable, life-threatening brain tumor at age 33, to her miraculous recovery, followed by decades of physical and emotional challenges -- including breast cancer, financial struggles and a dysfunctional, unsupportive family. Driven by her determination to survive, she learned to listen to her body and embrace love as the ultimate path to healing. In this inspirational page-turner, Sandi demonstrates the many ways she opened her heart and helped her body to thrive. Written for people with cancer, cancer survivors, and anyone living with a serious illness or post-traumatic stress -- as well as their caregivers and loved ones -- this book shares valuable lessons from a unique and rare perspective. Journaling exercises at the end of each chapter guide readers on their own healing journey to achieve both health and happiness.
