Infinite Gratitude - The Big 4-0

8/9/2014

3 Comments

 
August 7th I was in a daze!  I turned the big 4-0; a fourth decade of life! It hasn't been easy getting this far, but nonetheless, I'm here.  I've faced so much this last decade, and physically had to overcome my hardest challenge.  But the emotional stuff spans all decades, and conquering that is my proudest accomplishment.  I've come out from the darkest corners of my mind and heart, which for me is worse than any physical challenge. 

I haven't come this far by myself.  I am infinitely grateful to God first and foremost, my mom, sister, child, father, ex-husband, extended family, friends (past and present), friends/co-workers,  Dr. John Diaz and staff, Dr. Aaron Wolfson an staff, Cancer Support Community of Greater Miami support group participants, Ayama Yoga instructors Beatriz Adriana Gutierrez and Kristina Gerster, Reverends Robert and Barbara Asinger and the Church By The Sea Community and last but not least, the Epic Experience Full Moon Camp participants and volunteers.  The seeds of hope in me, you have all nourished and help to keep blossoming.

My THANKS to YOU ALL!!!

Hi Paula,
I am very impressed by your blog. You kept a very positive attitude through your ordeal and had a amazing support group. I was very inspired. I survived cancer twice and occasionally I worry that it may come back. I can't let it control me I have to keep on living. I stay busy and have plans for the future. I hope you enjoy motorcycle riding. Take care my friend. Thomas

    Welcome!

    Hi and welcome! I thank you for visiting this blog as it is my way of paying it forward. During my cancer treatment I decided to focus on stories of courage that kept coming my way and that helped keep me going.  Some are cancer related and some are not, but all are of the power of the human spirit and of the will of people to make it through the toughest of situations.  This is a platform to share those stories.  If you have a story of courage, cancer related or not, I'd love for you to share it!
