About the Author

After suffering from Type 2 Diabetes for almost 12 years Cherise Scally has reversed her disease. She has done what she was told was impossible. She was told she would have to learn how to live with this disease for the rest of her life. For her that was not an option. That is when she started studying about diabetes, the cause and cures which is what led to learning about the body and proper nutrition in disease reversal. She has spent two years of concentrated study and one year of applied study to reverse her Type 2 Diabetes. She is a wife and mother of two living sons and two deceased daughters, 1998 and 1999 due to her diabetes and a grandmother to a precious baby boy as of December, 2011. She has been an entrepreneur since the age of 16 when she started her own jewelry company. In 2001 she became a Mary Kay consultant and she also runs an eBay store and makes her own organic bath salts and soaps for sale. She and her family are active participants in volunteering at the local food pantry, Meals On Wheels and the annual City of Houston's Thanksgiving and Christmas meals for the under resourced. She always wanted to write a book. In the beginning it was children's books. But after she developed Type 2 Diabetes and after going on this 12 year journey her literary focus became the journey of reversing her diabetes. Due to its health ramifications she felt it was important to write about her journey first. Due to her husbands cancer diagnosis in January, 2008 she is now researching ways to put what she has learned and applied to her illness to her husbands in hopes of reversing his cancer. If she succeeds with that goal that will become her next book. Children's books are still in the developmental stage waiting to be published. Due to her diagnosis she has developed a passion for nutrition and well being. She has realized her goals she set for herself other than the reversal of Type 2 Diabetes with the help of her personal trainer at Jay's Gym. She no longer lives in fear of suffering anymore complications of this disease. As of the completion of this book she has become a Certified Natural Health Practitioner & Certified Holistic Nutrition Practitioner Combined C.N.H.P. & C.H.N.P. and is attending The Institute for Integrative Nutrition to be a health/life coach so that she can help others reach their goals and be disease free also.
