Book Cover & Preview Text
There I was, bald, as white as the sheet on my bed, exhausted, sunken eyes, and no sense of hope left. This was the moment that I thought I had lost the battle. The cancer was winning and I did not have the strength to fight any longer. What was in my body was leaving now, and leaving in a rage. I was getting blood transfusions, bags of fludis and medicine to stop the sickness but none of it was working. I remember having a male nurse that night. I was so sick. He had to constantly clean me up. I kept telling him how sorry I was then, I said, "I have no dignity left." He answered, "You are one of the most dignified women I have met." God sent me an angel. I was so needy of his wonderful care.
Blessed is he who is kind to the needy. Proverbs 14:21

About the Book
This is the story of one woman’s journey through life. This is my story. You are invited to travel this road with me as I relive hardship as well as all the joys life has to offer. This is an inspirational story. The intention of this book is to show you that, even in adversity, if you set your vision high enough you can overcome anything. “With God all things are possible.”
As you read, you will see how I turned my misfortune into victory through relentless faith. This book was written to motivate and encourage. I sometimes find myself at the top of the mountain filled with joy and then in the depths of the valley filled with despair. The one constant is that God is on that mountain rejoicing with me and is also in the valley healing my wounds. When you start reading this book, you will see me as the author, but by the time you are finished you may see me as your friend.
“No one has ever seen God, but if we love each other, God lives in us, and his love is truly in our hearts”
(1 John: 4–12).
