I wrote a memoir
I open with the first instance of my determination to live, no matter the odds; it's definitely foreshadowing. But the focus of the memoir is from January 26, 2016 to July 7, 2017.

Through the Darkness and Into the Light
The story of trying and failing to get help for chronic UTIs and kidney stones, before finally getting the help I needed - but almost too late.

Chronic SOS - May 5, 2023
Over the years, Cinco de Mayo has evolved into a celebration of Mexican heritage in the United States.
This year, I'd like to focus on a famous Mexican artist who struggled with chronic pain and health issues: Frida Kahlo.
