That ‘s what 2018 has been for me.

Also, I became an actual “writer” this past year.

If I had to define 2018 with one word-it would be STRENGTH.

Inner, outer, personal, emotional, physical STRENGTH.

January, February and the first part of March were the most challenging pieces of this past year.

This was when I first began writing on Medium. This is also when Dave and I were diagnosed with cancer,17 hours apart-he had colon cancer, and I had cervical. We both had surgeries and A LOT of recovery time together. We built our strength within ourselves and within our relationship. We are both fine now, but this month he found out the surgical site herniated, so was are awaiting a new surgery date from the Doctor.

During the Spring time, as I recovered, I was working on a book for a new client, and continued on Medium. As I wrote more and more, I found that I was FINALLY able to share my stories of my past…
