Published 2008 The uplifting autobiography of the co-founder of the world famous Gawler Foundation. In 1975, Grace had a promising future. A young vet nurse planning to study veterinary medicine, she received a lucrative modelling offer which would have paid for her university fees. Disaster struck when her boyfriend, Ian, lost his leg to bone cancer. With no one else to help, 21-year-old Grace decided to become his full-time carer, whole-heartedly believing his cancer was curable. She directed her passion into his healing, focussing on juicing, massages and pain management whilst researching every cure imaginable. Her efforts paid off and he survived. Soon after marrying, Grace and Ian established the Gawler Foundation, helping thousands of cancer patients deal with their disease. With a husband in remission, a farm to run and four children to raise, Grace developed her own methods for helping women with breast cancer and wrote her first book, Women of Silence, in 1994. Life was good. Disaster struck again in 1997. Ian left the family then Grac'es own major health crisis began. Soon the healer of thousands was struggling for her own life. For nine years, she battled on with little support, facing death many times, yet she never gave up. With amazing tenacity, drive and passion, she survived. Grace's story is a riveting read. For those battling life-threatening illnesses, along with their families and carers, this book is rich with wisdom, inspiration, courage and hope. Grace Gawler
