A woman describes being scalped, losing two inches in height, and surviving a near-fatal car accident in her twenties while her father died of cancer and blood clots. She rejected the medical approach of "cut it out, medicate it, radiate it" and rebuilt herself into a strong 52-year-old who could outperform most peers.
I was scalped. I lost 2 inches in height. I almost died in a car accident my second year at Cornell. And 9 months later, my 55-year-old father had had cancer 7 freaking times, blood clots in the lungs, all sorts of other illnesses, and was dead. And all they could tell us was cut it out, medicate it, radiate it, right, James? I was a decrepit 20-year-old, and I'm a strong 52-year-old postmenopausal woman that could probably run circles around most of the people that we know. How do we apply the same science to every single person? And here's his answer. Ready?
