Product Description
Hospitals, hospices, and terminally ill patients from Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, Harvard Medical School, and Dr. Norman Vincent Peale have added a new weapon in the fight against cancer - this home video program called Fight for Your Life. This multi-part program will help you or someone you love become a survivor. It is hosted by Dr. Bernie Siegel, author of the bestseller Love, Medicine & Miracles. It provides information, inspiration, motivation and education through the review of 4 cancer survivors' stories. The four patients, all of whom were told that they had weeks or months to live, tell how they used the positive attitudes and other Bernie Siegel techniques to survive. And in fact, each of them did survive. Dr. Bernie Siegel, America's most popular alternative medicine doctor provides continuity throughout these testimonials by relating his own experiences with cancer patients. For the newly diagnosed cancer patient, this tape provides useful survival techniques and helps alleviate feelings of powerlessness and despair.

5.0 out of 5 stars A real hope-builder!, November 9, 2006

By	Ruth Crawford (Washington DC area) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This video presents real people giving their personal cancer stories. These folks are very different in ages and backgrounds, but they all shared a dire diagnosis and have lived to present their experience, strength and hope. Interspersed with this is Bernie giving his own powerful message of hope and he does it with love, humor, and as always with Bernie, MANY stories. The second half about imagery and affirmations I found less helpful, but I've watched the first half a number of times. It always perks me up since I am in the middle of my cancer journey and sometimes the slogging is very uphill.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not everything I expected, May 12, 2007

By	D. A. Budd (Toledo, OH) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The genre of this tape is a bit out of date- although the stories are timeless. I expected more advanced digital work for the meditations to try. So I guess I was a bit disappointed overall. The content of Dr. Siegel's was very valuable despite the amateur videography. I probably wouldn't purchase it again.
