I just saw your post and I had to add my journey.

In 2005 at 37 years of age I was diagnosed with colon cancer and my relationship of 7 years ended. If you have ever faced a serious diagnosis you can understand the emotions of having to face your mortality at 37 years of age. I felt like I hadn't even begun my life. I did not have children, no prospects of a husband and felt like my life had no real meaning.

I began my spiritual journey and I can tell you from the minute I turned to God my life changed. I decided to stop living for myself and live for God - my foster parenting was not becauseof a void I felt in my life but more that I wanted to leave something positive behind. My first foster child - I am now adopting - I got her when she was two weeks old and she is now 13 months old. And to top that off I got engaged two days after I got her. My fiance has been involved in her life since day one.

So my whole life has changed -

God Bless
