May 29, 2018, Vol.16, Issue 3 I’m sure it’s safe to say that everyone reading this has been touched by cancer in their family, friends, and even pets — as I was last summer when we lost our beagle to lymphoma. That was also the cancer that sadly took my Mom at age 59. In… read more

An Evening of Bliss…Going to the Dogs

Teresa Rhyne, breast cancer survivor, author The Dog Lived, and So Did I

Jan. 30, 2018 Vol.16, Issue 1 As I scrolled through a Google alert, the big brown eyes of a beagle staring out at me caught my eye, even though the image was just the size of a postage stamp. It was the cover of a book. Clicking on it for a closer look, I found… read more

Hindsight?

Dec. 19, 2017, Vol.15, Issue 10 There’s a story behind the spectacular sunset pictured above that reminds me that behind a moment’s disappointment, unexpected and wonderful things may be unfolding brilliantly.

Nov. 17, 2017,  Vol.15, Issue 9 Starting next week ’tis the season of food, food, and more food. And these days, that means more people with food sensitivities in the mix.

Man on a Mission – Part 1

July 20, 2017, Vol.15, Issue 6 A gravelly voice would not necessarily be considered an asset for a professional speaker. But in the case of throat cancer survivor speaker Lee Tomlinson, he is grateful to have a voice, period, and his raspy voice just enhances the power of his message.

Breaking Free from The Stress Club

May 25, 2017, Vol.15, Issue 5 Are you participating in The Stress Club?

Caring Conversations and Advance Directives

April 27, 2017 Vol.15, Issue 4 It wasn’t my everyday speaker inquiry — Nicky Upson, Communication Specialist at Providence Health and Services, SW Washington, was asking for a speaker on Advance Directives for an event celebrating National Healthcare Decisions Day.
