How hard is it to GAL when your marriage appears to be crumbling before your very eyes? How hard is it to dance after you've been diagnosed with cancer? Actually, according to Indian dancer Ananda Jankar Shayant (http://blog.ted.com/2010/06/qa_with_ananda.php), it was the best thing she could have done:
"At the minute I was diagnosed with cancer, I decided not to focus on the whole thing. The only way I could escape focusing on the cancer was to focus on something that animated me and moved me and touched me. And, I found that in my dance. Dance is really who I am."
