Thank you to my Mom, Dad and family, who taught me health is everything; to my close friends who stood by me through the daily ups and downs; to my careful doctors who listened closely when I told them something else needed to happen; to my patient and compassionate teachers who kept me optimistic that something good keeps happening with each breath; to my students who continue to show up and transform right before my eyes.
Special thanks to my literary lookout crew: Bridget, Adam, Amanda and Libby… and especially to my husband, Richard, for believing I can do anything—anytime, anywhere.
