NOTES
My health problems have never defined me―I'm a Pollyanna! I have always seen life as a glass half full. I can find a positive in a negative, and this attitude has helped me throughout my life.I had read about the death of a woman who was a world-renowned talented artist and a vibrant creative woman known by royalty and the heads of state. She was someone whom my husband and I had met, liked, joked with, and who was left in crippling pain from nerve damage after surgery. She had fallen to her death from her high-rise apartment and was now lost forever.Her loss resonated with me as I too have endured intense pain that goes for months on end and experienced a mindset where you cannot think straight and have felt close to the edge.Hearing of this tragedy was one of the reasons why I decided to share my story in the hope that you explore the many ways that we can heal our bodies and our minds through alternate therapies.I hope, by sharing my story of being on a disability pension and being told I would be wheelchair-bound, this book will help you discover your own healing journey.I want to share with sufferers of chronic pain that there are ways we can heal our bodies and our minds.The key lies in finding the therapy that resonates with you―be it acupuncture, hypnotherapy, EFT kinesiology, hydrotherapy, energy healing, homeopathy, essential oils, or one of the many others on offer. I have tried all of these methods, and continue to use those I love still, as they all have a place in my ongoing healing. I hope that, by sharing my story, I can help others reclaim their lives. Jan Kuperman's life has been filled with adventure and travel. Her family moved constantly from when she was seven and her childhood was spent moving from school to school. By the age of fourteen, she'd lived in three different countries and attended twelve different schools. A gypsy of sorts, she found herself learning and growing with a diverse and ever-changing mix of people and experiences. Her working life was also transient, with a range of diverse and varied jobs by the time she was 30. This upbringing brought with it the skills of adapting, constantly learning, and a willingness to take new paths.Jan found a great job working in a hospital where she, unfortunately, contracted two viruses simultaneously. This event, and her body's reaction, was what lead her on a harrowing path of pain and suffering. Little did she realise then that this experience would leave her with a disability that would change her life.Through a series of health-related problems and misdiagnosis, Jan faced a bleak future and was told she would become wheelchair-bound for life. Through her determination to find the answers to regain her health, she began a journey of discovery outside the medical field. She would uncover new pathways and modalities where her own body, mind and spirit could begin to reverse the damage that was once thought to be irreparable.Her book, Disable to Able - from suffering to enlightenment is the story of her inspiring journey
