One month after her wedding day, thirty-three-year-old Cami Walker was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, and the life she knew changed forever. Each day brought new negative thoughts: I'm going to end up in a wheelchair. My life is over. Why did this have to happen to me? Then Cami received an uncommon prescription from a friend, an African medicine woman named Mbali Creazzo: Give 29 gifts in 29 days. "By giving," Mbali told her, "you are focusing on what you have to offer others, inviting more abundance into your life." Cami was amazed by what unfolded during her month long journey.--From cover.
