Thank you. I started "Rabbits Don't Get Lymphoma" on Sunday and put it down on Tuesday morning. It was like a wonderful conversation with a dear friend (and a kick up the derrière at the same time!). Cathie, you've made me pick up Louise Hay's book again (when the first time I was given it, I too had said that she was nuts), you've made me realise that I must BE the change I want to be and NOW, that I should be grateful for the health issues I have for being MY wake-up calls, and it was only after reading about your dad that I realised just how much I have been carrying around with me for mine. So, from the bottom of my heart, Merci Beaucoup!
P.s. One of my fondest memories, when I felt the most alive and happy, was also on the back of my horse, aged 12 and galloping along an empty beach (the feeling will never leave me) X

This book covers some of the most fascinating and challenging aspects of the human, body and mind, and the development of cancers. The author notes genetic predispositions as well as other, innumerable, factors, including nutrition, pollution (think of asbestos, tobacco...) and other environmental and life-style factors. That psychological and experiential factors can be (and perhaps usually are) involved in the development of cancers has been known for two millennia and more: in the 2nd century b.c. the famous Roman-Greek physician and surgeon, Galen of Pergamon, noted that 'melancholic women' tend to develop lumps in their breasts.
Cathie Grout devotes the larger part of the book to describe her own experiences in coping with and finally eliminating a non-Hodgins Lymphoma, and describes additonally many 'alternative', 'complementary (and dare one say 'fringe) systems of treatment in what seems to be about the most thorough survey of those fields yet printed. However, throughout her story - even on the first page - she notes a thread of something different: the power of the mind.
These topics have been investigated and reported in detail by the Belgian Surgeon and Psychotherapist, Thierry Janssen in one of his books: 'La Solution Interieure' (2006), now available in English as 'The Solution Lies Within: Towards a new medicine of body and mind' (Free Association Books, 2010), which tackles the same material from the viewpoint of a physician and scientist. Cathie Grout's personal experiences and her delightful balanced and non-doctrinaire style is an impressive presentation of or counterpoint to Janssen's concept of a new medicine of body and mind. Although she confines herself to one medical condition, what she did and what she has written would apply to - who knows? All illnesses? Probably. In summary, this is one of the most worth-while books asround for anyone.

Dear Cathie,
I am writing this review in letter format because it is for you as well as anyone who may read it.
I have to tell you I love your book.
It makes compelling reading even for me, though I have travelled some of the path with you and have been there while some of your story took shape. I love it for its humour despite the serious message; its straightforwardness; its undemanding nature and intelligent nature combined; of course for the story; for the freedom it offers to anyone using it as a prompt or reminder to seek their own healing. Perhaps most of all for the honesty you are courageous enough to share with your readers and your integrity in sticking with the process of writing this book until something uniquely yours emerged.
Having not seen the book at all, in any stage, until the proof copy was ready, it was a wonderful surprise and I truly hope your message blesses all those who read it with the best message of all: if it has ever been done, it can be done again.
Best selling status would be a gift to humanity and that is what I wish upon your book.
With love,
Denise.
