I am a human who has been lucky enough to have been given multiple trips around the sun. I hope for more as I live quietly in the Pacific Northwest of North America.

Surviving the death of my love due to ALS does not define me, but has opened a fountain of words that are collecting here.

Friend, daughter, business owner, & healthcare provider are titles I am called by others. But evolving as a human being is the most fitting goal that I hope to live up to, especially as a mum.

Carpe diem, my friends - not with a desperate grip, but instead in a savoring, chocolate melting in your mouth, warm petrichor-infused breeze on your face, kind of way. The good news is that we just cannot know how many of these days we will get. Live accordingly.
