About Me

I am a mother,a writer, and I also have cerebral palsy. People are often amazed at all the things I have done and continue to do, but I always seem to want to do more. Now that my daughter is in college, I am learning how to develop my writing skills. I plan to write a book about all the experiences I have had throughout my life. It's easy for me to encourage people to overcome their challenges, because I have had a lot of practice figuring out how to get beyond lifes obstacles. I feel that this is the ministry God has called me to and I will continue to live life each day in this calling.
