"Through Trauma & Tragedy, Passion & Purpose are born"

I came up with this saying after thinking of my how & why. For years I have felt that I needed a purpose. Sure, teaching is incredibly rewarding but since Breast Cancer, I have felt like there is more to do, more to accomplish-LIFE IS JUST TOO DAMN SHORT! My trauma of Breast Cancer, my tragedy of losing a part of me as well as relationships was the catalyst for the superfluous passion I now have.


The Passion Projects that I create aren't my light at the end of the tunnel, they're the train getting me to the light. I definitley couldn't do it alone. The people, companies, organizations, etc., who have been so generous absolutely move me. Just when I think humanity is at its worst, my faith in humanity is restored by small acts of kindness. I can't thank Dr. Jablonka enough for his donation towards the MammoTotes. He made my idea come to life. Knowing I am able to provide these small totes to women who are about to undergo the most life changing surgery, brings me to tears. What would I have done if I had received one nearly 10 years ago?!
