About the Book

A Fourteen-Year Journey: Facing Leukemia with Macrobiotics is a story of the courage and dedication while facing cancer to live each day to the fullest, and a valuable contribution to the growing literature exploring the importance of complementary and alternative medicine. With the growing acceptance of Eastern modalities, such as acupuncture in Western medicine, A Fourteen-Year Journey offers you the opportunity to:
Explore the gulf separating Western and Eastern medicine, including proof versus performance and the cult of expertiseDiscover the wide range of macrobiotic practices affecting food choices, cooking, eating, chewing, exercising, and sleeping Consider the evidence presented on one woman’s fourteen-year journey to control and ultimately reverse an allegedly irreversible blood cancer without chemotherapy or radiationLearn to listen to your own body so that you can become your own best advocateAnd decide that you can take more personal responsibility and control over your own health.


About the Author

Michael R. Dillon earned both a PhD and a law degree. He spent over twenty years teaching as a university professor and another twenty as a practicing lawyer. He is widely published in scholarly and legal periodicals, yet he claims no medical expertise for this very personal memoir. He was, however, an intimately involved observer, notetaker, and recorder of his wife’s fourteen-year journey controlling her cancer solely by diet and exercise. Married for over forty years, Michael presents important information and data for patients and physicians alike who are concerned about cancer and the quality of life.
