I had surgery in May – my partner Laura found what proved to be a large uterine mass and a large ovarian mass suspicious for cancer. I had surgery and developed many complications, including internal bleeding and a leaking lymph vessel which caused a large lymphocele. This required for me to have a drain in my abdomen for 6 weeks, several hospitalizations and potentially more surgery, as there was no non-surgical solution for my problem.

I continued to apply my focus throughout – first, even with elevated ovarian cancer tumor markers, I manifested that the tumor was Stage 1a – not requiring chemo or radiation.
Post operatively I was unable to walk without walking sticks, due to pain, weakness, and extensive surgery. In one session of fieldwork I completely regained by ability to stand up, walk straight and balanced.
I manifested the healing and complete disappearance of the lymphocele, all documented on multiple CT scans, and won the battle against doubt and profound fear.

Most recently I had a pelvic Ultrasound, showing a growing mass on the other side and the development of a fistula to the Vagina – again a complication which could require surgery.

I continued to apply the Neighborhood Walk®, after JZ’s LeGrand Chat even more inspired.
An MRI scan one week later shows the disappearance of the fistula and the mass seen shrunk to half its size.

I also had a remarkable healing of the Physician I am, by becoming a Patient.”

“By becoming a Patient, I found meaning again in being a Physician. I learned that what I do, is by far not as important, as how I am being while I am engaging a patient.”
