2 comments about Born to Heal: The Life Story of Holistic Pioneer Gladys Taylor McGarey.
- I have had the privilege of knowing Dr. Gladys in person, and it is just as much pleasure to read her life story. It is special that it is shared with us by her daughter. I feel as though I have experiended her lives with her! Analeah is a great writer. Gladys is a great doctor. This story would be enjoyable for anyone to read who likes life and people and adventure! I will read and re-read this one! It is ageless and priceless.
- Pioneer women still exist and the story that unfolds of the life of Gladys McGarey is just one such story in the modern day. In a world that seeks 'purpose' as a guiding life principle this woman's story shines out. Her life unfolds in the writing in a beautiful way, modest, yet bold and strong. Analea McGarey's writing comes from the heart and the hearth where stories of Gladys' life abound and she has woven them together into a beautiful tapestry which is both evocative and inspiring.
The narrative takes the reader from her birth in India and the inborn love for healing through her life today. A pioneer woman on the front of women in medicine, holistic medicine, balancing family and vocation, internatial lecturing and always willing to live her life in the faithfulness that carried her through all of life's challenges.
This is a book to inspire women and men of all ages to live their life to the fullest seeking always to be in line with God's will for their lives. Not the typical story for there are many challenges along the way.
As I write this review of my sister-in-law's book Gladys is preparing for another adventure going to a 3rd world country to continue to share her healing hands with people in need.
After you read this book you won't be surprised, but grateful to live in the world the same time she is here and challenged to live your own life to the full.
