Russell Hemmings Real Lives

Putting cancer behind her and embracing a health focused future...


When Sue was told by doctors that her cancer had spread and was incurable, naturally her world fell apart. The British mother of two had recently become a grandmother for the first time and the thought of not being there to see her grandson grow up was a devastating blow. Having being told that she might have as little as twelve months left, she vowed that she would lavish as much time and money on her family as she could in order make the most of those final months to the full. So blowing her savings and insurance money on holidays and meals out for all was something she didn’t think twice about. At that point in her life nothing seemed more important than enjoying every moment left to her.

Doctor’s had recommended she undergo chemotherapy and radiotherapy, suggesting that there was no cure, but she might achieve more time with her family if she did. Twelve months after her initial diagnosis and living on what she believed was borrowed time, doctors dropped an unexpected bombshell; her cancer had gone into remission and the future, something she had never contemplated, was going to become a reality for her.

Of course, anyone who has had to faced something like this is inevitably going to be traumatised and this is when Sue turned to me for help. Not only was she struggling to cope with what had happened to her emotionally, but in the months when she believed she was going to die she had forgone any thoughts of her own health and had ended putting on 25kg in weight, ballooning to a massive 122kg!

Helping Sue rebuild her life and regain her health has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. Now she’s well on the road to getting back to normal and through extensive cognitive behavioural hypnotherapy and life coaching she’s learning to embrace and celebrate her future by focusing on being her healthiest and happiest self. The weight is starting to drop off and she’s loving every second of the time spent with her much loved grandson.

Russell helped Sue lose weight and he can help you too. Please call to discover how.
