Description
A truly inspirational cancer survivor's story of an ordinary woman who decided to have a child even though doctors had told her she probably wouldn't survive to raise her. Having twice defeated breast cancer, Irish Bernadette truly found her calling and now helps others win back their health, inspiring them to live life to the very fullest. An inspiring story of an ordinary woman's spirited fight against all odds. After defeating breast cancer the first time, when she miscarried a baby, Bernadette Bohan's doctor told her: 'You've got more than most. You have a girl and a boy, so go home and live your life.' Yet twelve years later a little miracle happened and Bernadette got pregnant. In spite of a massive chance she'd have a recurrence, Bernadette held her nerve, trusted in God that everything would be OK and gave birth to a healthy baby girl. Five years later, Bernadette's cancer returned. Once again she survived. This time she created a lifestyle which she vows saved her life. After her amazing survival, Bernadette's fame grew through friends and family passing her story on. And this ordinary wife and mother found her own special calling.
Soon her living room was packed with people wanting to learn how to be healthy. Now Bernadette is a favourite and powerful talk show guest and lecturer.
