Happy Birthday!


Today I am 56 years old. 6 years ago I was diagnosed with multiple myeloma, a rare blood/bone marrow cancer. It is treatable but incurable. At that time the average life expectancy was 3 years. Since then the ALE has increased to almost 5 years. Here I am, 6 years later and SLAYING it!! 

I have a great life. I travel and entertain. I do date night at least once a week. I binge watch great TV shows. I eat steak and pizza and ice cream whenever I want. 

I am surrounded by wonderful friends and family. (In person and virtually!)

I wake up every single day with a happiness and gratefulness that I did not have before. 

I wake up every single day. 

I am here. 

I am living my life to its fullest each and every day. 


Enjoy your life NOW. Be thankful for what you have and do not lament over what you don’t have. Life is a gift. Accept it graciously!
