Living the Dream

Day 9

Had this been a “normal” year, my husband and I would have made the long drive from Florida to New Hampshire, and would be settled in for the summer enjoying the lakes and mountains.

Back to the Hospital

Day 7

As much as I love Florida Hospital and the cheerful, loving staff there, I’d be happy to never visit again, lol. Today, though, I had my second outpatient surgery in 2 months – the placement of a catheter port that will be used to administer my infusion medications over the next year.

Life Interrupted

Day 2

I have an awesome life. Although we live in Florida, we spend summers in New Hampshire – boating, jet skiing, riding through the gorgeous mountains on a Harley, and enjoying our friends and life. We’ve made it a point to always arrive before “Laconia Week”, a 7 day motorcycle rally during which time we’re able to catch up with a ton of old friends.

My boys spent every summer of their lives, through college, at the lake. So my last 20 plus summers have been more than enviable. Until now. Read More→

Why Me? Finding Purpose

Day 1

Life is full of ups and downs, and when we find ourselves in a downward spiral we often react by wondering, “why me?” Like you, I’ve found myself in many unpleasant situations, some that have left me feeling fearful and hopeless.

As I look back, it’s clear to me that it has been through the times of trial that I’ve experienced tremendous growth. For every tear I’ve cried, there has been a purpose and eventually a positive outcome. Read More→
