THEN perseverance saved my life and continues to do so. After World Championship last year, it was discovered that my lungs & liver were dying due to vasculitis. I also have a brain tumor. July 20th, 2007 my life changed in an instant. Things became clearer, found out who were the "real" people in my life, and what was most important. As I continue through my chemo & steroid treatments to put my vasculitis into remission, sometimes perseverance is all I can hang onto. Plus, I know it will get me through my brain surgery with flying colors!
It was ironic - yesterday at a reception they had for us at work who were not returning next year, our principal spoke about each one of us. He said he thought of a word that came to mind when he thought of us. The word he said reminded him of me was PERSEVERANCE! He said I had an inner strength that was pretty amazing and that I would persevere through everything.
So as I thought of what to name my site, I chose perseverance since it is so much a part of me!
