Holy Cancer: How A Cow Saved My Life is the enlightening and emotional memoir by Amit Vaidya, a young man who sets off on a one-of-a-kind journey that perhaps nobody should ever have to. Given six months to live and no immediate family to support him, Vaidya, a first generation Indian-American, ventures a path less taken and explores alternative treatments throughout India for his metastatic stage IV cancer diagnosis. The journey starts as a prelude to his death but ends up giving birth to his second life.

This is a story about resilience, believing in oneself, trusting in humanity and not letting judgment stop anyone from trying anything. It goes beyond any disease. It's about appreciating each moment, truly living, and winning in life by finally taking time to get back in touch with nature.

Holy Cancer is not a medical book, it does not offer the "cure" for cancer nor does it promote any single type of treatment or therapy. What it does do is describe in detail the path the author took to find his healing path - something the reader can learn from, feel inspired by and use as a catalyst for their own healing empowerment.

"All the wishful thinking in the world wouldn't have saved me if I didn't have discipline, a routine and faith. Faith in myself, my Earth and fellow human beings -- strangers who let me live, survive and thrive."

About the Author

Amit Vaidya, is a man of numerous talents but these days he takes most pride in the role of a health advocate. With over a decade of experience as a patient, as a caregiver and as a medical consumer, he has developed a unique gift of navigating the system for fellow patients while prescribing them with endless doses of positivity and practicality. Rather than go back to his comfortable life in America upon news of his remission, Amit has chosen to stay back in India to help others fighting the disease find their own path to a cure. The patients come from all wakes of life, asking WHY, and leave embracing WHY NOT. This gift to inspire others has led him to launch HEALING VAIDYA, a NGO to help all individuals become their own best advocate. The goal is simple -- to provide knowledge and improve awareness to all matters of health and wellbeing. --This text refers to the hardcover edition.

Extraordinary book I read in recent times, could not stop reading from beginning to end.
A person traveling in his own journey to self realization. Very motivating and very realistic.
This would qualify for a great movie.

Faith and discipline are the cure.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 13, 2015

This is a powerful book about self-discovery, healing and finding way to live regardless of circumstances. I don't often read autobiographies but I was moved by how positive the author remained throughout his ordeal with cancer. This is a must read for those seeking inspiration and wanting to do something active about it.
