This chapter in my bumpy road of life shares the beautiful reminder of valuable lessons in every adversity. Hand in hand, my sister and I vowed to fight for life with grit and grace, to live and love, bless and be blessed, till the end. I was never afraid to die and now I am not afraid to live. I’ve learned to make a joyful noise, no matter what, with love and light. Many have called me The Joy Boomer, a baby boomer helping others tap and amplify their joy, rekindle dreams, and even reinvent themselves regardless of age. I hope we can all dare to reach out and boldly live. It’s never too late.
