Forum Radio: Nathalie Latham

Nathalie Latham (Tamil Nadu) was a documentary film maker and photographer until cancer halted her life. Now, she has re-emerged as an artist, with a beautiful book about her treatment, recovery and emergence into her new phase of life. 'I AM ALIVE" is a testament to resilience and creativity, and how the two intertwine. With eloquence and humour, Nathalie talks to Jessica Fellowes about how it felt to surrender to the process of intensive treatment, her move to India and her work as an environmentalist. The podcast ends with Nathalie's moving Love Letter to Life.

'Beloved life, you are my love, my center. I honor you in all I do on this earth with these hands and this heart. In the meal I cook, in the tree I plant, in the hand I hold, in the drawing I create, in the joy I share.Sacred life, beloved life, I am alive.'
