Being My Own Statistic
Marianne Dyer’s Being My Own Statistic shares the lessons learned from the author’s experience with a life-threatening medical condition. Following her diagnosis, Marianne decides to treat her condition as her own fight, developing her own method of combating her illness and learning to appreciate the many gifts and blessings she has received throughout her life.
“Marianne, you've got to be your own statistic.” It’s probably the best piece of advice I’ve ever had. I had to treat my diagnosis as my own fight and do it my way. And that’s what I’ve done. It has struck me since then that that is how I have lived my whole life, doing it my own unique way; this is just the next challenge along the way. Creating this book has really made me realise what an amazing life this has been and how fortunate I am. I have lived, I have loved, and I have been loved, and I am so grateful.
