Facing Challenges

Recently I met a woman who lost her husband many years ago to an unusual accident when he was in his 50's. At the time, she had breast cancer.

Over the next few years, she trekked the Himalayas (something she and her husband had talked about doing), drove in a camper through the western United States, and ended up in Sedona, where she thought she would die soon.

Every day she hiked around Bell Rock. Instead of dying, she lived. Then she opened a medical practice for the second time in her life and practiced medicine for another fifteen years until she decided to retire. 

Now in her late 70's, what is noticeable about this woman today is her smile. Today when I saw her, she was undeniably radiant.
