Summary
Nina Caspersen took a Lightning Process training course with Live Landmark after several years of severe CFS/ME that developed following cancer treatment (surgery, chemotherapy and radiation) in 2012-13. She became bedridden and wheelchair-dependent, unable to turn over in bed on her own, limited to five-minute whispered conversations, and at one point felt suicidal, writing "life had no value to me." Six months after the course she says she exercises two to three times a week and has traveled to the Canary Islands and London, calling herself "pleased as punch" with her life. She credits the mental tools she learned on the course, alongside exercise, with helping her cope after being diagnosed with cancer again. No relapse of her CFS/ME symptoms is mentioned.
