While teaching a course at Massasoit Community College named “The Psychic Mind”, Lois Berman was approached by Carol Maynard, a past mayor’s committee member.  The Psychic Mind became so popular, its growth prompted Carol Maynard into suggesting Lois consider putting together a show on the local cable channel.  Thus, the program “The Psychic Mind” was born approximately 15 years ago.  

 In 1981, Lois was involved in a head-on collision caused by a drunk driver, having suffered from leg, back and neck injuries.  For  months, Lois felt that something wasn’t quite right physically, feeling that her head was not in the right place on her neck. 

 Following her accident, Lois returned to work, but became increasingly debilitated, suffering from severe pain.  With her physical state becoming increasingly difficult to function, Lois subsequently lost her job.  She consulted with many specialists in the medical field, including specialists at Mass General Hospital.  Six years after her car accident, Lois was unable to walk, didn’t know when she needed to use the restroom - felt as though she was dieing.  No one knew what was wrong with her. 

 One day, a friend took her to a psychic on her lunch break.  This psychic recommended some books and told her she was intuitive.  As Lois learned about being intuitive, she realized she had been doing this since she was 4 years old.  Her experiences as a child, she thought to be normal – thinking everyone did “it”.  At 8 years old, Lois told her grandfather that the man across the street died.  Her grandfather had such a reaction to this statement that Lois thought that she was bad, that she had deliberately upset him.  Mr. Hughes died an hour later.  She has always had this “Gift” of inner knowledge. 

 Lois had countless visits with various specialists.  One after another, she was told there was nothing wrong with her.  Finally, she saw Dr. Steven Feinberg at the Lahey Clinic.  Dr. Feinberg discovered Lois was a thread away from being paralyzed by a bone severing her spinal cord!  He performed surgery on her neck using steel thread and a muscle from her neck.  Believing in her inner knowledge gave her strength to have faith that somehow someway, she would encounter the right person who could help her.  Dr. Feinberg was that right person.   She had surgery in March and at the end of April, Lois danced at her friend’s wedding!  Lois had a dream for years that she would be dancing!
