She was then rushed back home to Montana and underwent emergency surgery, and 4 months of a grueling chemo regimen. Her chemo left her with numerous side effects, including many that would prevent her from playing volleyball again. She was determined to find a solution and that she did: she was introduced to living, structured water by a friend. Within a week of having a structured water machine, almost all of her side effects were gone. 5 years later, she’s running a six-figure business, known as the “water wizard”, and an AVP champion.
