Two relapses. One choice. Thirteen years cancer-free.

CANCER, BEYOND THE DIAGNOSIS

A holistic guide for patients and caregivers

Including a 30-Day Recovery and Prevention Planner

When Annie Vanhee received her diagnosis of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in 2008, a journey began that she could never have imagined for herself. Two rounds of chemotherapy. Two relapses. And then the choice to do things differently.

Today, Annie has been cancer-free for 13 years. In her book Cancer, Beyond the Diagnosis, she openly shares what healed her — not as a doctor, but as someone who has lived through it herself.

A testimony of courage, of holistic healing, and of the strength that emerges when you take your own recovery into your own hands. For everyone confronted with cancer. And for the people who love them.

About the Author

Annie Vanhee is a yoga teacher, health coach, and visual artist, based in Ostend, Belgium.

In 2008, she was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. In the years that followed, she underwent chemotherapy twice, but each time the cancer returned. Unwilling to accept that conventional medicine alone held all the answers, she began exploring a holistic path — integrating nutrition, complementary therapies, and a deep reconnection with her body and mind.

That choice changed everything. Annie has now been cancer-free for thirteen years.

This book is her way of sharing what she has learned — not as a medical professional, but as someone who has experienced the fear, the relapses, and ultimately the recovery from the inside. She wrote it for every patient who feels overwhelmed by their diagnosis, and for every caregiver who quietly carries more than anyone realizes.

The book includes a foreword by Dr. Bart Devos, general surgeon and chairman of the non-profit PLUS 4 Health Care and the Department of Integrative Medicine at AZ ZENO in Knokke — a reflection of the bridge this book builds between conventional and holistic care.
