Dear Friends,

 

Spending time in the mountains this summer and experiencing the horrific Beaver Creek Fire first hand  has caused me to think of how nature  mirrors our life and what firestorms we all must pass through.

 

 

Cancer can be one of those firestorms; horrific, devastating, and like the thick, dark smoke, at times hard to breath. But eventually it is over, and the experience has caused us to stop and re-evaluate and to view life in a new and different way.

Thus, this Newsletter is to honor and salute all those who have gone through a firestorm or are in the middle of their personal firestorm  - a place of great challenge. Know that this too shall pass, the sun will again appear and new growth will soon take root and grow, and there will be clean fresh air once again.
