You have presented it in a very interesting way.”

“I am overwhelmed in a positive way, by your desire to move forward, dedication and inspiration to tell your beautiful story to the world. A story of working with women in parts of the world that are not known enough to us, and helping them with medical health, support, looking at system’s inequity, etc.
You are also a warrior, going through cancer, diagnosis and treatment, and still, having a goal, right in front of you, that you have never lost sight of - writing about the importance of supporting women through your career with the World Health Organization.
I am at awe for all that you have accomplished, in your career, the fighting of cancer, and writing this book. Your strength and perseverance are a testament for your abilities and I am humbled you remembered our meetings, conversations, the couch, and that you were able to take away encouragement and support.
I am delighted for you.”
