One Million Lovely Letters: When Life is Looking Hopeless, One Inspirational Letter Can Change Your Life Forever
Jodi Ann Bickley
One Million Lovely Letters is one woman's inspirational journey to recovery. A witty and uplifting testament to the power of words to heal the heart and mind. As featured on 'Jodi's Lovely Letters', part of the popular BBC One series 'Our Lives'.
In the summer of 2011, aged only 22, Jodi Ann Bickley contracted a serious brain infection that would change her life forever. Jodi had been performing at Camp Bestival on the Isle of Wight. Returning with pockets full of glitter, she thought the happy memories would last forever. A week later, writhing in pain on the doctor's surgery floor, Jodi found out that she had been bitten by a tick and contracted a serious brain infection.
Learning to write and walk again was just the start of the battle. In the months that followed Jodi struggled with the ups and downs of her health and the impact it had on her loved ones. Some days Jodi found herself wondering whether she could go on. She had two choices: either to give up now or do something meaningful with the time she had been given. Jodi chose the latter.
This is the story how she turned her life around.

Cosmopolitan
She may have to get used to the attention because my hunch is that the book she has written, One Million Lovely Letters, may well become a bestseller. It's Eat, Pray Love meets The Little Book of Calm.
Sunday Telegraph Stella Magazine
Extraordinary... Her account of this time is very affecting... She writes with acute intelligence of the loss of the familiar Self, suffered by people who become very ill or disabled... The letters she prints and her sweet replies bring light into a gloomy world, and I for one am grateful for her message.
Daily Mail
