In October 2001, James O'Connor was diagnosed with mesothelioma, the asbestos caused cancer. His prognosis was less than a year to live. Surgery was not possible because of the position of the tumor and chemotherapy would decrease his quality of life and not significantly improve his length of life. His oncologist suggested that he take his wife on a cruise and start hospice care upon his return. James rejected the idea. Instead he was determined to survive this cancer. Working with other professional clinicians, he formulated a regimen of over 100 supplements a day, changed his diet, practiced mind-body medicine, and relied on his own discipline to see him through the difficult times ahead. More than six years later, James is alive and active. He enjoys his life and continues his holistic regimen every day.

Reviewer: Janine M. White,
It took great thoughtfulness,courage & thinking outside the square to make the decisions that the Author & Mesothelioma survivior J.R. O'Connor has written about in --They said months. -- I chose years. May he remain well for many years to come. Definitely worth reading for those very recently diagnosed & in the wilderness of shock & disbelief.
There are so many people in Countries all around the world-- who will unfortunately have their health descimated through Asbestos exposure.
