You ever been stuck? You ever felt like your day was holding you
hostage? Like you were handcuffed by your fear,. your circumstances. You forgot to laugh.. You lost your best self somewhere along the way.. That kind of stuck can happen to anyone. And it happened to me.
But from the outside everything looked pretty good.
At 53 I was an eight time Emmy award winning investigative reporter,
a mother, a wife. I'd survived a lot.. I survived breast cancer, kidney cancer. Having my entire large intestine removed for
ulcerative colitis. Who knew you could survive without all those
body parts. I should have been doing the happy dance every
day. Just to be alive.. I'm ashamed to admit I wasn't. In 2009 things had changed.
The economy tanked, my job changed,. technology changed, but I didn't want to change.. I dug my heels in and I felt angry and isolated.. The low point came when my daughter came home for the holidays
and she looked at me and she said: “Mom what the heck is wrong with you?”
“You gotta fix this”. I said : “leave me alone”.. She said: “No, you're a survivor, I know what you need to do”
