At times, we face losing something, gaining something and accepting the new uninvited normal. Within these events, we need to make decisions. I decided that in order to move into my healing I had to confront fear, step out in faith into unknown outcomes while trusting and believing that I would live to tell about it.
The ninth child of Betty and Ivan, in a family of ten, I grew up in a time when society seemed far less complicated. I am now married to Jim and we are empty nesters with three grown children that have graduated into their own life adventures. My pancreas cancer story started in February of 2018. Since that time, my husband, Jim and I have beat this disease. This blog tells the story of how we faced a giant and found peace and victory.
No matter the challenging life event you face, my prayer is that this blog helps you successfully walk through your distressing valley by listening to yourself, your body, your faith and approach it with positivity, faith, courage and strength one day at a time while finding purpose, meaning and a life that exceeds your expectations. This is my healing story.
Peace to you,
Rita

…recently interviewed by the Mayo Clinic in Rochester to talk about what life is like living without a pancreas post recovery from therapy and surgery. I share some insights on how I coped through the process and some of the blessings I have experienced by reaching out to others that are facing the same disease.
Peace in the battle
“… we may feel we are caught up in a whirlwind that spins us around, we lose our footing and don’t know where to turn next…”
Knowing God through Jesus
…My desire is to help others to know Jesus so that they too can have eternal life and so that Jesus can bring abundance even in the hard places. Psalms 65:11 NLT “You crown the year with a bountiful harvest; even the hard pathways overflow with abundance.”…
