*****
My dad was diagnosed with Parkinson Disease in 1995. I was with him every step of his journey until he shed the chains of his disease and took his first breath in heaven in 2017. From this, I gained life experiences that cannot be taught in the classroom.
I have been called to help those who are lost, frustrated, scared, and simply don't know what to do or where to turn. I struggled to find answers and realized that I was chosen to be the one who can give help to others who are suffering. You are not alone.
"TRUST in the Lord with all your heart...do not depend on your own understanding...
seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take"
Proverbs 3:5
ABOUT ME
"When doubts filled my mind, your comfort gave me renewed HOPE and cheer."
Psalm 94:19
I am wife, a mother, a daughter. I am also a believer.
I am an eternal optimist. I have faith that everything happens for a reason.
I know that God takes our burdens from us if we ask.
He has called me to be a servant, a counselor, an advocate to help those who are in need.
The bravest people I know are fighters. Even in the face of a challenge, they keep on going. They are fighting for their life, or fighting for their loved one's life. There is hope. All it takes is a little inspiration. We can discover that inspired hope together.
