Healing through
laughter is not a dream, but a recipe for survival
If you were to read a book
about Oana's life, you might easily decide it was a work of fiction.
Born in Bucharest,
Romania, Oana lived twenty years under the grotesque dictatorial regime of
Ceausescu. After the fall of communism in 1989 she studied languages at
the University in Bucharest, then received her
Master’s degree at the Jagiellonian University in Krakow,
Poland. English is her third language.
She has worn many hats, working as a translator, as a teacher, and eventually caring for animals both domestic and wild.Volunteering in both the U.S. and Canada, she worked for wildlife rescue and rehabilitation centers.
Currently residing in Arizona, Oana continues to dedicate most of her time to her animals and to writing.

Her first book, The Healings, debuted
in November 2010. It is a hard-to-put-down, laugh-out-loud series of
adventures of an eccentric duo: a man and his feline partner walking from
‘healer’ to ‘healer’ and hoping to achieve awareness.
Oana’s take on depression is
simple and effective: witticism and laughter coupled with the understanding of
the frailty of human nature help us heal. An animal companion, real or
imaginary, can be very therapeutic as well.
Many a reader – depressed or
not -- will recognize the insanity of most of our daily routines and the
elusiveness of Truth.
Oana’s current projects
include a memoir titled, Romanian Rhapsody, a children’s
book, Dr.Schnauzer and Nurse Lhassa, as well as other stories,
all written in the same witty humorous
style.
She is also an active member
of Central Phoenix Writing Workshop http://www.paloverdepages.com/ and
a co-host of Two Unsychronized Souls Radio Show http://www.blogtalkradio.com/monicabrinkmanandoana
