It takes a lot of bravery, determination and belief to change your life. It takes even more to save your own life, and to take charge of your body and your health, even as doctors, friends and family are advising you differently.
Gina O'Callaghan tells a story of how a shocking discovery and diagnosis of not one, but two types of rare cancer inspired her to radically overhaul her life, focusing on being as healthy as she could, and how this helped her not only recover from the disease, but transformed how she lives today.
