I was diagnosed with "Stage 4 aggressive" lympho-sarcoma back in 1977 after months of being told nothing was wrong. By the time it was diagnosed it was traveling aggressively throughout my lymphatic system as well as my spinal fluid, showing up in my bone biopsies as well as in my blood stream.
I was given less than 3 months to live, and told there was not much available, at the time, towards recovery.

Since my journey through recovery I, and my husband of over thirty years, have been raising four happy, healthy, children and are involved in the lives of our 3 & 1/2 grandchildren. I have gained a survivors understanding and insight into the challenges that can be encountered in life.


I continue to do extensive research on a various topics, with interests varying, depending on the moment. Trained in Counseling Applications, as well as hypnotherapy I ran a successful Counseling practice specializing in Personal Growth, Self-Esteem and ‘Health Challenges’, such as cancer, in the Sidney BC, area for many years, taking time off to write and publish a variety of books.

My interests, constantly on a course of evolution,have me totally immersed into Photo Restoration/Preservation as well as WebSite Management and Marketing. I have never been one to let go of the past, but to embrace and learn from it and all that it can convey onto the next generation.

If I learned one thing from my travels with cancer, is to live in the moment and always aim forward.
