The truth is that I never intended to become a patient advocate--or to write a book. But then, something happened that changed my mind--and the course of my life--forever: In 1990, my husband Tim Fisher was diagnosed with a very serious, cancerous brain tumor. It was then that I became patient advocate. In this capacity, I found many s for Tim which I believe lengthened his life and improved its quality. Case in point: He lived for 15 years after his diagnosis--12 years beyond his doctors' predictions. Ironically (and sadly), I found that his doctors weren't at all curious about the s I found for Tim. It seemed to us that they were only interested in the s they themselves prescribed and recommended; s they had learned about in medical school and in their journals--no matter how unsuccessful these s were for their patients. In Honest Medicine, I tell about the incident that caused me to write the book, and why and how I set out to find the s I profile. All of them are effective, time-tested and inexpensive, yet all of them have not yet found universal acceptance. It is my sincere hope that Honest Medicine will help other people to feel confident about finding s that work for them, and that they will not be wedded to the s their doctors recommend, even when those s are not working.
