I recently interviewed Dina Ubaldina, a very attractive woman in her forties from Brazil, for my upcoming InspirationalComedy book which explores the healing benefits of laughter, fun and play. She was diagnosed with an extremely serious form of brain tumor and went to many different medical experts who all gave her the same diagnosis and a very short period to live – six months to be exact.  But she never gave up and finally met a doc at UCLA who was willing to support her in her conviction that she could survive. 

She is not just surviving she is thriving! And she has set up a website to inspire others, linked to a UCLA website which I will give you in my next post.

I asked her what she attributes her success to, and how she healed from her cancer and she cited several very important factors that helped her dramatically. We will be going into those in more depth next time. But she did give me her favorite funny movies to tell you. The movies that helped inspire her and made her laugh

They will be going into my upcoming book with David Riklan, the founder of www.SelfGrowth.com : "The 101 Top Inspirational Comedies Ever Made: Laugh Your Way to Health"
