About the Book
Holy Cancer: How A Cow Saved My Life is the enlightening and emotional memoir by Amit Vaidya, a young man who sets off on a one-of-a-kind journey that perhaps nobody should ever have to. Given six months to live and no immediate family to support him, the first generation Indian-American ventures a path less taken and explores alternative treatments throughout India for his metastatic stage IV cancer diagnosis. The journey starts as a prelude to his death but ends up giving birth to his second life. This is a story about resilience, believing in oneself, trusting in humanity and not letting judgment stop anyone from trying anything. It goes beyond any disease. It s about appreciating each moment, truly living, and winning in life by finally taking time to get back in touch with nature."All the wishful thinking in the world wouldn t have saved me if I didn t have discipline, a routine and faith. Faith in myself, my Earth and fellow human beings -- strangers who let me live, survive and thrive."
