I am in a long term relationship and recently engaged. I have 7 amazing children ...2 of my own and 5 step- children. I am a Moya-Moya survivor, a stroke survivor, an aphasia survivor and have died and been brought back. I mention those because they are intricately a part of who I am today.

I never wrote a poem until after all of these and a few other events occured. I love tattoos. I love music. All of which bring me great joy.
