The book chronicles Anita's personal journey, from her struggle with cancer to her remarkable experience during a near-death experience (NDE). She was diagnosed with lymphatic cancer in 2002 and, after battling the disease for several years, fell into a coma in 2006. Doctors gave her only a few days to live, and her organs were shutting down. However, during her NDE, Anita had a profound experience where she felt an overwhelming sense of peace, love, and understanding. She realized the importance of self-acceptance, unconditional love, and the need to release the fears and limiting beliefs that had controlled her life.

As Anita approached death, she had a revelation about her true self, discovering that she had been living her life according to the expectations of others and fearing judgment, instead of embracing her authentic self. After returning from the NDE, she was miraculously healed, and her cancer went into complete remission within a matter of weeks, which doctors described as a "miracle."

In "Dying to Be Me", Anita reflects on the lessons learned from her NDE and how they changed her perspective on life. She encourages readers to live with authenticity, release fear, and embrace self-love. The book offers profound insights into healing, spirituality, and personal transformation. Anita’s story is not only a testament to the power of the mind and spirit but also an inspiring journey of personal growth and the ability to create a life of peace and joy.
