This mini-memoir journal by Michelle Grey is a short, but interesting read on a topic that so many are willing to ignore until there's a problem. Our health.Are You Listening is the story of the author's physical and emotional battle with a silent killer, Ovarian Cancer. It was a cancer that took her mother and other relatives, so she understood all to well the realities of the disease and the danger to her own life when she was diagnosed.What could be a depressing, dire read that preaches or just gives dry facts about all of the things that can wrong, is really a positive affirmation about trusting your convictions, having faith in your belief system and becoming an active, educated part of your own support team.Michelle shares the good, the bad and the not so pretty in the journal of this every day wife and mother. In doing so, she educates and inspires me to be more aware of the signs my body and intuition tell me about my health and well-being.I hope you buy this book for yourself and gift copies to the other women in your life. May we all be survivors with the personal strength shown by Michelle Grey in this journal when faced with the challenges of our own lives.
