When the waters rise—and you don’t feel ready

If you are carrying more than you can possibly keep afloat- this is a place to find hope.

I started writing after being diagnosed with cancer—I was taken completely off guard.

I thought I had been preparing all my life for the disaster that might be just around the corner.
Planning. Anticipating. Trying to stay one step ahead of whatever could go wrong.

But when it actually happened—
I wasn’t ready.

And I learned something I didn’t expect:

You don’t need to be ready.
