Book Referrel
To Interested Persons:
I would like to recommend a very exciting and timely book written by Sam and Bunny Sewell called "I Fired My Doctors and Saved My Life." I am calling this book to your attention because it seems to naturally lend itself to cinema adaptation.
The theme is straight forward and simple, yet deeply profound. The main character, Sam is a compassionate, no-nonsense psychotherapist who shares a successful family practice with his wife, Bunny.
After a lifetime of engagement in a wide variety of pursuits, ranging from Naval Aviation, intelligence gathering to theological and scientific research, this middle-American farm boy from Iowa is diagnosed with a serious heart condition. Sam had enjoyed good health most of his life and had never spent a day in a hospital.
After not being able to sleep because of shortness of breath, he was referred to a cardiologist and was immediately hospitalized. He was told that his life could be saved by nothing short of a heart transplant. By-pass surgery was out of the question.
Shocked by the sudden realization of a life-threatening disease, Sam & Bunny proceeded to seek a second opinion and to arrange for extensive testing. All the tests and professional judgments pointed to a confirmation of the original diagnosis and the need for a heart transplant.
The search for a donor heart began, and Sam was put on a regimen of prescription drugs, most of which proved to be laden with side affects and seemed to be energy-draining.
Finally, frustrated by the endless testing and visits to out of town specialists who disagreed about the levels of medication and the proper surgical procedures, Sam and Bunny pooled their own resources of nutritional knowledge and, with the help of other health professionals, turned a tragic future into a modern miracle. They "Fired Their Doctors and Saved Sam's Life!"
Without drugs or surgery Sam’s heart disease was reversed, and diagnostic testing two years later verified that there wasn’t even a need for “stents.”
The diet, health and fitness element of the book is today, a subject of enormous popular concern. The plot contains a rich blend of drama, joy, crisis, and triumph over adversity. Each of the characters is well developed, realistic, yet vivid and enticing.
My own experience as a producer and director of many stage plays both in New York, and Naples, Florida over the past fifteen years, has convinced me that this would be a smash film production, well received by a large audience of family-oriented movie-goers, where the subject matter is wholesome and uplifting.
This enlightening book, "I Fired My Doctors and Saved My life" has a strong spiritual message which will have universal appeal.
It is a fascinating story with a happy ending, which should prove a strong alternative to the usual "sex and mayhem” theme of most Hollywood fare.
Sincerely,
Selwyn J. Mills Ph.D.

Science-minded Mensans will be interested in I FIRED MY DOCTORS AND SAVED MY LIFE because the conclusions are backed by careful research with full citations. Creative-minded Mensans will appreciate the literary quality of this well-written journey; full of the pathos & humor of a well-lived life.
AUTHORS: Explain why you wrote the book, and, in your opinion, the books’ unique contribution:
My wife and I wrote I FIRED MY DOCTORS AND SAVED MY LIFE to expose the dangers of conventional drug and surgery therapies. We also wanted to provide a better way to prevent and reverse disease. Most people are unaware that highly respected, peer-reviewed professional journals have published numerous studies validating alternative therapies. You are unlikely to hear about these from your doctors. Learn what we achieved, without surgery! Be an active, well-informed participant in your own health care! Your life may depend on it!
Below are some of the comments about the book from other professionals and authors. I am eager to have the book featured in your column. The Lulu link at the bottom below our photograph provides front and back graphics and preview pages. If there is anything I can do to facilitate your efforts I am available.

I FIRED MY DOCTORS AND SAVED MY LIFE –
Natural Healthy Alternatives to Drugs and Surgery
by Sam and Bunny Sewell
I want to emphasize that this book is a well written interesting story as well as being solidly researched and scientifically accurate. Here is what people are saying about it:
“Well researched, and scientifically sound, yet full of the pathos and humor of a well lived life. The stress management chapter alone is worth the price of the book.”
Selwyn Mills, PhD - Author of “Prisoner of Romance”
“As a clinical psychologist and a person committed to a healthy lifestyle, I found your book to be very affirming and amazingly informative. When you have it all complete and published I'm looking forward to purchasing copies for my patients. The careful scientific research you completed clearly illuminates a path for long-term health and survival.” Deborah Coe Silver, Psy.D
"I love this book. ‘Stop treating symptoms and start treating causes’ is your theme, and for some reason this is lost on most people. You have documented why this is true with panache, style and erudite wisdom. It is a must read."
Gene N. Landrum, PhD - Author of The Superman Syndrome - Paranoia & Power - Is Your Life a Comedy or a Tragedy?
"I really appreciate your openness and honesty about your denial, fears, and depression at the same time your humor is evident throughout your writing. There are undoubtedly many people who can identify with you and can be helped by reading your book."
Lois Daniels, MS
"Sam and Bunny Sewell make clear a hidden health crisis in America; the male tendency to avoid health related issues."
Amber Lenfert, M.S.H. Senior Health Educator
"I am a licensed medical professional. Traditional western medicine has saved many lives. But it is up to you to read and be informed, think outside the box. Read this book and you will have a great advantage toward a healthy, happy life."
David Eimers
"As an ARNP (Nurse Practitioner) with more than a passing interest in the American Healthcare system, I highly recommend this work. Sam could have surrendered to the weighty and costly consequences of his diagnosis as presented by "expert opinion" (read Cardiology). Instead, Sam took ownership of the situation, and with the help of his family and friends, has turned his crisis into a great learning tool that is also a good read."
L Brian Brown ARNP
"A MUST READ!!!! Buy this book now and most importantly, when it arrives read it immediately, then pass on to a friend and order more for your other friends. If you don't learn something and grow and have a better lifestyle from reading this book, than you haven't cracked the binding... IT WILL SAVE YOUR LIFE!"
Yasmin Saad
"It is so well written and chock full of goodies. It has touched me deeply and had me crying and laughing (sometimes almost at the same time) and many other emotions in between."
Jean Kogok
“Your wisdom, wit, intelligence, research and commitment to reality regarding victory over heart disease and death should be required reading for every doctor, patient, hospital staff, care giver, and pharmacist.”
