Hello everyone...I would love to get to know all of you and hear your stories. Let's all say hello!
I'll start off...
I'm Heather. I was going to be a marine biologist. That was all I ever wanted. I spent my entire early years preparing for the rest of my well planned-out life. Then, at 20, I was told I had melanoma. I needed to quit my job as a lifeguard at the local pool and was told without any further discussion that I needed to fall back on career plan B. I was not going to spend the rest of my life on or near the ocean and the sun. It was hard. Looking back, I was pretty crazy to be so focused on having to give up my dreams instead of being grateful for the fact that the melanoma was found early and I was going to survive. That's when I began writing my first book. So, I took the worst experience of my life and turned it into a great accomplishment.
Recently I participated in a 5K walk for breast cancer with my husband's aunt. I saw such support and love being shown and was a little jealous. I never had such support. As a melanoma survivor who had been a lifeguard, I typically got the look that said without words, "Well, if you had stayed out of the sun, you'd probably be fine." I wished that I had people to lean on when I needed them, rather than the reprimands.
Regardless of our struggles or hardships, we need support when facing them. I want to offer a shoulder to lean on, or an ear to listen for everyone who needs it. Let's make sure no one ever feels alone in their hardships again!! Even if you've said hello in the past, reintroduce yourself and tell us who you are!
