Honestly, the "lesson" she learned is one that is important for anyone struggling with health issues, particularly autoimmune illness, and doing everything possible to heal: Balance is everything. An obsession with getting better is so stressful and anxiety-inducing that you will make yourself worse, not better.
I just think Scher could have communicated this more effectively, and succinctly, in a blog post.
A few other notes:
- There is profanity.
- Scher grew up nominally Jewish, though currently embraces a "spirituality" that borrows from Buddhism, Hinduism, astrology, etc.
- The treatment she receives in India uses embryonic stem cells. The doctor administering it is proud that she uses "only" one embryo for all of the cells used in her hospitals, but because I'm morally opposed to the use of embryos in this way (I believe life begins at the moment sperm fertilizes an egg), this is really no consolation.
- The author comes across as very privileged, and mostly seems to take her privilege for granted, sadly.… (altro)
