I was too sick to travel on Octowhen my husband and a volunteer transported 24 birds to Second Chance Bird Rescue in OR. However, just as my heart was heading from my separation of the 20, birds there came another heart trenching good bye to another 24 birds. I has a lot more work to do to be able to allocate the birds to other organizations because even if in remission I would not be able to care for the amount of birds under my care, especially the handicap, elderly and most delicate birds that continually required hands on care.įinally, in September, we received our blessing as my husband’s treatment worked and he reached full remission. As my treatments continued with the goal to control and shrink the tumors, relieve pain and prevent the condition from metastasizing in any new areas of my body in September of 2022 my CAT/Scan showed improvement and I was on my way to remission. ![]() Saying bye to these precious lives broke my spirit but I knew their lives would thrive and that preceded my pain. On Jwith a very heavy heart, I took a trip and delivered 20 birds to Cape Fear Sanctuary.

However, 2022 has been the worst year in my whole life, beginning with suffering a Lung Embolism on December 2021 and the diagnosis of stage 4 Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer I struggled to fight with all my might the fear of dying as the outcome of the treatments were not guaranteed.Ĭhemo treatments is one of the worst lifestyle to deal with day in and day out but with a vigorous attitude filling me with a healthy attitude, an even a greater determination than ever in my life with an unstoppable spirit to live to 90 and continue to care for the sanctuary birds and became proactive to secure their future.Īs if this was not bad, enough in Mach 2022 my husband diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma, which was curable with chemo treatments, but he was not able to continue to care for the birds. Remission is the most glorious word I heard! ![]() To my best ability I continue my life and my work with the birds lives. I can only hope to live another 20 years and continue to care for birds, supporting them when they live me and die from anything but cancer. Celebrate my life and my work by gifting our refuge and support the birds! ![]()
