Wish by Spirit:A journey of recovery and healing from an autoimmune blood disease

After mysterious bruises appeared on her arms and each day brought a struggle to maintain the life she knew, Joan finally learned she had immune thrombocytopenic purpura, ITP. ITP is an autoimmune bleeding disorder, subjecting its victims to a lifetime struggle with low platelet counts and a constant fear of bleeding to death, or so Joan was led to believe. After seven failed treatments, the additional health problems they created, and a platelet count that hovered near zero, she began her own search for a cure. She experimented with vitamins, herbs, energy medicine, and took a deep look into her soul to discover ways to heal her sense of self. Joan's journey from diagnosis to remission lasted 18 months. The insights into her life, the healing practices she learned, and her spiritual shift changed her life forever.
