Her real name is Patti. She discovered this site and has become addicted. She has made so many friends and read so many really professional works on this site. She would like to thank so many wonderful people on this site who have encouraged and helped her. She is in her mid 60's with three grown and married children and seven gandchildren. During a very hard time in her life she began to write poetry. Writing is therapy for her and some of her work is based on her own life. She is in the process of writing a short novel. In 1992 she survived a bone marrow transplant for Lymphoma and was diagnosed with lung cancer in 2007. She was treated with chemo, radiation and cyber knife surgery and after almost three years she is cancer free. She shares this information in order to give hope to other cancer victims. She lost her husband of three years to a sudden heart attack in January of 2009. God has left her on this earth for a reason but she hasn't figured out what it is yet. She writes more for therapy and pleasure, rather than for perfection. The content and message are what encourage her to review and write.
