Meg Wolff

Meg Wolff is a two-time cancer survivor (bone cancer and breast cancer) from Maine, an author and a macrobiotic expert.
Early life
Wolff was born in 1957 as Margaret DeCoste and grew up in Westbrook, Maine, a suburb of Portland, the second of five children.
Personal life
Wolff has been married to Tom Wolff since August 1982. They have two children, Francis and Cammie.
Cancer
At age 33, Wolff was diagnosed with bone cancer and had her leg amputated. She had a 4-year-old son, Francis, and a 6-month-old daughter, Cammie, at the time. Eight years later, at age 41, Wolff was diagnosed with advanced breast cancer.
Wolff exhausted all conventional medical treatment - surgery, radiation, chemotherapy - but doctors gave her no hope. She learned that a macrobiotic diet based on whole grains, beans and vegetables might help and started eating this healthy way. After switching to this diet, her health started to improve.
Wolff has a website that offers help and support to anyone dealing with cancer, information about diet and health, inspiring survivor stories, links to helpful resources, and recipes. She also has a blog that is building a community of people all over the world who are interested in living a healthy life. Wolff teaches macrobiotic cooking and lectures around the United States.
