recent health challenge “Being sick is not fun, at all. However, when your body
becomes vulnerable and weak you do find other kinds of strength and clarity.

“It was hard
to not be able to parent my daughter fully or mother my family as I have always
done. I refused help because I was the helper. Then something great happened
when I let go. I let my daughter help me, I let my family support. I stopped
being supper woman. It’s great” she confessed
