My guests for Saturday are Dr Grace Gawler (left) and Cindy Nolte.

Grace Gawler DHM (dist) DBSc ATMS Mem IPOS (International Society for Psycho-Psychology)has been involved with teaching cancer survival strategies for more than 39 years. Trained as an Herbalist/ Naturopath with an early background working in veterinary medicine with her ex husband who became a cancer patient in 1974. Over the years Grace became a pro-life cancer recovery strategist and trained in body psychotherapy with Ilana Rubenfeld in the USA. She co-founded Australia’s first Cancer Support groups and residential courses and has worked throughout the world in the area of cancer as a public and keynote speaker and workshop facilitator. She has chosen to emphasize the emotional-psycho-spiritual aspect of cancer recovery and management at all stages. Grace learned a great deal when in 1997 unexpected post-surgical complications from a routine surgery left her with colon paralysis. After 21 surgeries geared at keeping her alive Grace eventually found her solution – an experimental ‘bionic’ sacroneuromodulation implant performed in Holland. The procedure was a ‘world first’ for this condition. Grace had her life back knowing what it was like to be in the shoes of a patient with a life threatening condition. She wrote her memoir Grace, Grit and Gratitude in 2008 to celebrate her survival.

As Founder and Director of the Grace Gawler Institute, Grace can now help patients to find integrated cancer solutions. She helps patients to transform the challenge, PTSD, fear and myriad of emotional issues surrounding cancer into becoming a successful patient – the best one can be whatever the outcome. She works in conjunction with medical oncology and integrative oncology clinics in Australia and Europe assisting patients with fully supported medi-tours to Hallwang Private Oncology Clinic in Germany’s Black Forest. You can listen to Grace’s US-based free to air internet radio show Navigating the Cancer Maze on Voice America’s Health and Wellness channel. Contact: institute@gracegawler.com
