A Word About Joy

Several months ago I was gifted with a period of 10 days when I wasn't sure if the cancer I'd been diagnosed with had spread through my body or not. It was a gift, to live with that fear of dying, because it brought me back so close to the reality of LIVING, to the reality of my own precious life.

When the PET scan came back "clear," I got on with the surgery and made a decision to have adjuvant chemotherapy treatments "just in case."

I have also made a strong commitment to myself to create as much joy in my life as possible. This blog is here to keep me accountable to this commitment. Read on, dear friend, and may you be inspired to create more joy in your own life as well!
