The Second Chance Self: A Journey of Endless Beginnings
Research studies have shown that caregivers and medical patients are often traumatized by the experience of illness, as well as the medical treatments that are received.
Dr. Grace’s research corroborates the data; however, her findings, based on first-hand accounts of patients and caregivers, reveal that personal growth, spiritual healing, and transformation are also possible.
Through Dr. Grace’s personal journey, professional training, and ceaseless effort, she assists others on their journey to find a silver lining of hope, meaning, and renewal, that might inspire them to also find, a second chance self.
