It is an ongoing process that I have seen work...My story and my journey continue as I move towards getting this book to the editor. There is no true happy ending yet; I am not holding hands, riding off into the sunset. I am still working on healing; each day is better. I have an occasional flare-up in my body. This is expected. The marathon continues. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b07077492fce1fd0a07a15/e8e3d4d3-6b80-4b47-ac93-7749868af31c/cover+to+Ferrari+book.png Home Our voices are powerful if we use them. Sometimes, we all need to roar a little to gain attention when required. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b07077492fce1fd0a07a15/c8b3aad0-0146-4b6f-97c9-e72ad7f250a9/Four+Years+and+Counting+books.jpeg Home I have learned that my story matters because there is that one person who needs to hear it. I am not crazy. I hate to call myself one, but I am, in part, a victim. There are many of us. I choose not to play the victim card. I choose to focus on moving forward. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b07077492fce1fd0a07a15/a37e72fd-1cc2-4711-ac50-87bdb025d015/Trees+on+walks.jpeg Home I am experiencing a world of a journey in which my creator has opened my eyes to see that I am not alone. My world is quite right, right now. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b07077492fce1fd0a07a15/ec999beb-06b9-4591-8663-0096195da4a4/Walks...many+walks.jpeg Home We need to be mindful and completely present in the moments we breathe. We must allow our minds to clear out the messy stuff and focus on the simplistic, natural beauty of breathing. From this basic, instinctive, reflexive behavior, we become grounded again. It is where we find ourselves—just breathing. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b07077492fce1fd0a07a15/5ce84dd5-4b62-47c9-8edb-4ac611eaab15/Gail+in+IV+Room+2.jpeg Home I started the introduction to this book while having my IV today....I have a goal that this book will create more awareness for people seeking alternative medicine and fundraising to help them. I am working at looking at my life one year from now...It is a beautiful view...one year from now. Move ahead, look ahead. Rearview is no longer an option. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b07077492fce1fd0a07a15/0dee7677-f450-40e3-a484-25c46fc807f6/Roaring+Sisters+logo_transparent.png Home I have power over my own healing now. It did not come easily, and it has been quite a ride. I’ve been behind the steering wheel, oftentimes cruising on autopilot, hoping for something better than another crash. I’ve also been behind the steering wheel, with the windows open, loud, celebratory music playing, and in total control. I will forever keep using the premium fuel, and I will forever keep roaring. I will embrace every hill, curve, roadblock, and construction zone along the way. I know there is much more to come, but I am fueled, packed, and supplied with everything I need. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b07077492fce1fd0a07a15/1e23c770-0163-40ee-8fdf-5b3552a81bbd/IMG_1518.png Home I am experiencing a world of a journey in which my creator has opened my eyes to see that I am not alone.

There will be more, but gaining a new friend today helped my smile return. I am ready for another day. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b07077492fce1fd0a07a15/b48e1445-73ab-4427-b0d2-b45bc7899746/IMG_2745.jpeg Home Every bit of our journey is part of the plan. We are worth it. We are worth sharing honesty and complete transparency. There is nothing to hide in healing. There is a story to be told and a lesson to be learned. I love my mom! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b07077492fce1fd0a07a15/29557bdd-6b1f-44b0-888f-fc09a8071378/IMG_4040.jpeg Home Functional medicine is a marathon, not a sprint.

I began seeing the gratitude in the little things that each day brought me, and although commonplace, they were essential and positive in the days I needed them the most....These simple things create the most intricate quilt we should drape around our shoulders at the end of each day and say, “Thank you. Thank you, God, for e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g. Amen.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b07077492fce1fd0a07a15/60ebb385-86f3-4d08-9b88-97f5f34e6d0c/IMG_1875.jpeg Home I want to educate people about a healing process that changed my life forever. I want to give people hope in the healing process. I want people to know they are not alone in any journey unless they want to take the trip alone. I want to create awareness. I want to help connect people and provide financial assistance to those in need. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b07077492fce1fd0a07a15/e141180a-5b5f-4e3e-aa42-cc5f57daee34/IMG_0501.jpeg Home I see the magnitude of what my being sick has done to my family, my patients, and my friends. I am not sad. I am grateful. I can see that I am with other people who have a much stronger sense of what I am experiencing because they are walking perhaps a parallel path with me. I do not feel alone in this journey now. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b07077492fce1fd0a07a15/1782322782916-2I63ZPCZBMFOZ47UP2GP/GettyImages-1201215883.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b07077492fce1fd0a07a15/74fbdcfc-f233-4b94-bc40-6706ecc3bd7d/Image%2B6-22-26%2Bat%2B5.08%25E2%2580%25AFPM.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b07077492fce1fd0a07a15/d9c17c99-9a40-4c39-84b2-592209a36936/Image+6-24-26+at+12.55%E2%80%AFPM.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b07077492fce1fd0a07a15/ddd4e2a5-bd57-4870-bc79-5392fc3c5628/Image+6-24-26+at+1.01%E2%80%AFPM.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b07077492fce1fd0a07a15/5bd80a7b-1ed3-419e-b6b3-2410f6eeed6a/IMG_1082.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b07077492fce1fd0a07a15/1782321079058-6CVSQOOTCJLSP381VUBZ/unsplash-image-AGqzy-Uj3s4.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b07077492fce1fd0a07a15/1782321165014-N5SF5SBDPL22ZD4G49R8/unsplash-image-7gRGP7_PV-Y.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b07077492fce1fd0a07a15/1782321217512-TXRRZUMA37Z0MXRIY3ID/unsplash-image-YRHvv3OhOW0.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b07077492fce1fd0a07a15/1782321313490-UR5WD7WYQFYUVENB8962/unsplash-image-5JSZzMilCVo.jpg https://www.roaringsisters.org/about daily 0.75 2026-06-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b07077492fce1fd0a07a15/5bd80a7b-1ed3-419e-b6b3-2410f6eeed6a/IMG_1082.jpeg https://www.roaringsisters.org/contact daily 0.75 2026-06-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69b07077492fce1fd0a07a15/1782318767793-H0CWBUHNV20RA0PNX309/unsplash-image-xcgh5_-QIXc.jpg
