In the past, I might have been passionate about something but I usually kept that passion only among friends. Now though, I have a drive that I didn't have before. I have a confidence that I lacked in myself when it came to something I really believed in. I still struggle with confidence now and then personally but when it comes to my work...all the passion comes out whenever I get the chance!
After 15 years of trying to finish my undergrad, I spent the week before finals in and out of the ER. During finals I was diagnosed with Endometrial Cancer. I graduated Magna Cum Laude the next weekend from Western Michigan University. I am now blogging about my experiences of fighting cancer & living life after in hopes of being able to help others.

My New Normal Day 33. New Confidence!
One of the things of starting in a new field are the new opportunities coming my way. It is a small thing really and part of the job but I'm excited. I am going to be giving an educational class to hotel employees who will be hosting a conference for people in the Blind Rehab field. As many of my friends can attest, I love talking about my field but it has always been to friends. Yes, educating, but not to professionals outside the field. This is the first time that I get to educate and help spread the word about blind rehab. I am feeling good and confident and excited!!! Can't wait to get more opportunities like this!
