After a short period of denial, Megan coins this latest turn a "gift." A snowboarder, yogi, surfer and wellness ambassador, Megs embarks with confidence, feeling uniquely equipped for the unknowns she is about to face. Naturally she is lead towards unconventional holistic care as part of her chosen path of healing despite the advice of Western doctors and the controversy that ensues.
