Miracles Beyond Medicine: A Physician's Personal Journey to Healing Through Conventional and Alternative Medicine
When Dr. Carolyn Coker Ross's mother is diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease, she searches frantically for ways to help her without much success. Then she, herself, is diagnosed with a serious medical condition for which conventional medicine has no treatments, and must focus her efforts on her own journey to healing. In the process of looking for a cure for her mother and then, later for herself, she realizes that healing goes beyond what she learned in medical school. Dr. Ross explores spiritual healing, complementary and alternative medicine, shamanism and more in this moving account of a physician's transformation from doctor to healer. Along the way, she meets many individuals who have healed themselves or been healed from serious and life-threatening conditions. These miracles in healing change the way she views medicine and healing in a way that she could not have expected. Her own personal journey began with her mother's illness and then her own. The greatest challenge she will face, however, is her son's illness which forces her to face her own dark night of the soul. She returns from this journey with a new passion for healing and a fearless desire to help others faced with similar challenges.
