Welcome 

to my blog where I share all the very personal aspects of my experience with a malignant meningioma diagnosis, my treatment and my ongoing recovery. If you find yourself on this page, you are probably going through a hard time and I hope you find comfort, support, advice, inspiration, hope and even some humor in my posts.

Let's lift each other up! I am rooting for you.

MY PICK
OF THE MONTH

where_the_crawdads_sing.png

A coming of age story and murder mystery novel that will transport you to the marsh of Barkley Cove. Where the Crawdads Sing quickly became my favorite book, and I wanted to race through it but never finish it at the same time. I plan to read it again, and I definitely recommend you read it! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
