Where do I go from here?

in introduceyourself •  7 years ago  (edited)

My name is Lisa Marie and this is the story of my life. The story involves many stages, some wonderful and others painful; leaving me asking: Where do I go from here? I have been blessed with an incredible, beautiful, daughter; a son born with Rhabdomyosarcoma (cancer of the soft tissue) who died after an eight month fight for his life; my husband who was diagnosed with esophageal cancer and died after a two year battle, along with enduring a hostile workplace ending with a corporate law suit and personal warfare involving my fight to survive. I have worked in criminal law and politics, moved from a big city to 20 acres with five horses, chickens, dogs, a duck and a donkey! A tremendous amount of knowledge and experience has been acquired during these stages and I would love to share my story and life lessons with you. Maybe through these challenges and experiences I can help you or someone you love.

Thank you for the warm welcome! I will certainly follow your blog!

You are extremely brave and strong woman! I don't think I would stay sain if I lost a child. I lost my father and many other members of family due to cancer but that pain can be compared with yours. I can relate to everything you've gone through. Stay strong beautiful lady!

Thank you for your kind words. I am very sorry for your loss of loved ones. There is no greater pain!

I only do authentic follows, and you are one of them. I'm so sorry for all of your losses! I lost two sisters to a rare genetic disease when I was a child, so I always feel close to others who know what that kind of loss is.

Really hoping you have a beautiful experience here and see lots of support. It takes courage to share like that from the start. I'm anxious to here more of your story and glean your wisdom--suffering borne with love bears a lot of fruit in a soul.

Love to you, from a new friend. Xx, Kay

Hola Lisa Marie, muy conmovedora tu historia, bienvenida a Steemit, gracias por compartir tu historia.

Hello Lisa Marie, very moving your story, welcome to Steemit, thank you for sharing it.

Thank you for the kind words! I only hope to help guide others as many times people simply don't know what avenues are available for them. I have been blessed with many people and opportunities to fight battles that needed to be fought. Some were won, some were lost. I hope you will follow along! There have been many wonderful experiences too! Looking forward to sharing!
