Here’s what I’ve learned through it all:
Don’t give up;
don’t be impatient;
be entwined as one with the Lord.
Be brave and courageous,
&
never lose hope.
Yes, keep on waiting—for he will never disappoint you!
~ Psalms 27:14 (TPT)
My tagline used to read:
"Writer, Speaker, Professional Patient"
After surviving four near-death experiences, & 10 life-threatening illnesses, this description seemed fitting. After all, my journey began when a
I did keep my sweet baby and battled chemo while
pregnant, more chemo after her birth,
and then radiation.
Three months later, my cancer returned.
football-sized tumor entangled my lungs, while a six-week-old baby grew in my belly below.
Undergoing a stem cell transplant, multiple strokes, open heart surgery just to name a few, seemed like a fictional tale no one wants to face. But my sicknesses brought me to this unique place. Because if anyone understands how a patient feels, it's me. For the longest time I wanted to be the normal girl. I did. But now I know God's using this uncomfortable part of my story to bring a little joy to those walking through a trial. He's even reminded me of how He sustained me. He used my family. My friends. And His Miraculous Interventions. Now I hope He's using me to help you share a pretty little something for your soon-to-be survivor. That's why my new tagline reads: Uplifting gifts, sharing joy. See. Much better.

I know.
It's hard for me to look at these images, too.
But if a picture is worth a thousands words, here's a little something to help you understand how much I care for those facing an illness.
"He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When they are troubled..."
2 Corinthians 1:4 NLT
