Her Worst Moment
She was tired and having stomach pain quite a lot and her Mom told her to go and get it checked out.
She was put on medical treatment for IBS and then it was found out on the follow-up, she had polyps in her stomach that were cancerous.
Her Dad told her not to worry, that everything was fine and going to be ok. She was Daddy’s little girl and believed him, and he was right, everything was really ok.
It was stage 3 Cancer and her large bowel was removed. It took 5 years after, for the surgeon to tell her that the concern for it spreading to her liver was over. This was a real celebration point!!
Having Chemotherapy and Surgery was the worst point. She was not going to allow it to defeat her and she worked up until the last couple of treatments. Louise learned that it was all about having a positive mindset to get through.

The Turnaround Point
As a stubborn child when she was young, she turned it into survivor mode. This helped her to get through. Tragically, her Mom suddenly passed away and she had to work through a lot of grief.
She began to run, starting one night while waiting for the bus. She signed up for the London Marathon and stuck to the training plan and completed it, raising money for charity along the way.
She speaks about the powerful healing running had to help her get through all the emotion from losing her Mom.
A Closer Look
What about you changed the most from this experience?
Louise found a love of yoga, running and living a life that is fulfilling. She began helping others that have physically healed from Cancer yet need support for the, What Now? Question.
What wisdom would you share you gained?
Helping others is very healing. It has made a huge difference in her life and she feels happy and blessed to share in being able to help them.
