              5 out of 5 stars This book is about health and healing, not illness........1997-10-29

              Health and healing, not cancer is the subject addressexd in Peny Goodson-Kjome's book, THIS ADVENTURE CALLED LIFE. Our defense against disease is our immune system health, and building immune system strength is a focus of this encouraging book. (P)Goodson-Kjome believes, as do many, that everyone has cancer cells but healthy immune system balance destroys them before they can mutate. She rejected the standard procedure of surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation, believing that this approach destroys the body's defenses and it does not reach or affect the cause of cancer. (P)Goodson-Kjome stresses that her path is her own and devised in accordance with her own needs and feelings. Her path is not necessarily right for someone else. She shares withus her process of consulting with friends, reading, spending time sharing feelings with her husband, and shows us the letter she wrote to family and friends regarding her decision about treatment, asking for their support. She wrorte, "I pick up your energy so let it be loving."(P)We all have our own individual spiritual path and Goodson-Kjome's message is - cultivate one of your own and follow it. (P)Not only cancer is addressed in this little book, but healing from any serious illness resulting from the body's imbalance. The herbal and nutritional information is invaluable. The Appendix, Reading List and Index provide further guidelines for looking for your own healing sources. (P)I recently met the author at a writing conference and found her a healthy, glowing woman. She is now into her seventh year of health since her diagnosis of breast cancer!

                    Book Description

                    Twenty-two and a World War II widow, Dorothy Estermann resolved to build a new life. It was 1944 and she was working as a secretary for the Commonwealth Edison Company. Joining a tour group that was traveling to Mexico seemed like a good start. It was DorothyÂ's first trip outside the U.S., and as it would turn out, the beginning of a lifetime of travel and adventure.

                    In the years that followed, Dorothy explored the western U.S., Canada, and the Caribbean. She traveled to New York and revisited Mexico. In 1948, she took the big step of leaving her hometown of Chicago and moving to Los Angeles, California. Then, in 1950, Dorothy accepted a job in Germany with the Army of Occupation.

                    Young and abroad, Dorothy explored Europe on weekends and during vacations. Soon she met a tour guide and married. From then on, travel was a way of life. During their 46 years together, Dorothy and her husband, John, lived mostly in Switzerland, and traveled through Europe, the U.S., Mexico and Asia.

                    Dorothy describes her travels in An Adventure Called Life. It is the story of an independent woman who followed her heart and never looked back; whose adventurous spirit sought and found a rich and full life. This book is memorable not only for the sheer number of places Dorothy visited, but also for her courage—few women of her time would have taken this path and pursued it with such enthusiasm.
