Write for CURE

I&acirc;&euro;&trade;m Stage 4 NED almost 5 years, rising from the ashes.

The dictionary defines a crucible as a test of faith, patience or strength. For me, cancer became the crucible in which my faith, patience and strength were tested. Ten years after a diagnosis of tongue cancer and seven years since a diagnosis of breast cancer, I am alive and well and stronger than ever, especially mentally and spiritually. It may sound strange, but cancer was a gift that changed my life and made me a better person.

The Crucible

I love gathering seashells and I enjoy making people smile! Put those two things together and you get painted seashells!! At least that&acirc;&euro;&trade;s what I came up with. I may be the only person on my flight who is TAKING seashells back to the beach! I place a painted shell each day along my vacation. It&acirc;&euro;&trade;s a pleasure to witness someone discover my little treasures! Makes me feel good, and I make a donation for each one that is found &amp; posted on social media (Instagram).
