Chandra Beckman is part of the elite group of women who have flown the United States Air Force fighter jets. As a young girl, she was captivated by the fast-paced and driven environment of an Air Force career and sought to overcome the social barriers that presented it as a man’s world. Never one to back down from a challenge, Chandra succeeded in her goal and has flown T-37, T-38, F-15C, F-117A, and T-6A military aircraft, as well as the Piper PA-28 Cherokee, Cessna 172, and Beechcraft Sierra C-24-R civilian aircraft in her personal time. She never thought that as a fighter pilot, she had to fight for her life.
From Fighter Pilot To Fighting For Her Life/ft. Chandra Beckman
How a fighter pilot had to dismiss the medical system to fight for her life!
After 8 years in the Air Force, Chandra’s health inexplicably began to deteriorate. Suffering from fatigue, food intolerances, weight loss, and many more slowly emerging symptoms, she sought medical help, only to be advised that her symptoms were psychosomatic.
Years of fighting for medical care that didn’t brush off her symptoms or negate her illness resulted in Chandra retiring from the Air Force so that she could seek medical help from outside the institution in a bid to discover what was causing her plight. Now fighting to save her life, as neurological symptoms were setting in, Chandra embarked on a journey into Holistic Healthcare, researching all possibilities.
In today’s episode, she shares her journey with us, as well as the diagnosis she finally received and her ideas on how to treat this life-threatening illness. Press play to find out what that diagnosis was and how dismissing the mainstream medical system finally saved Chandra Beckman’s life.
