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

I am the potter
In one of my first appointments with Dr. Truty and his team it was pretty evident that I hadn’t fully overcome my anger about receiving this diagnosis. I think I said something like, “Why couldn’t I have just gotten hit by a bus and die?!” Honestly, when I was made aware of the work that I had to do to overcome what most people interpret as a death sentence, I wasn’t very happy.
