As a child in the 1960s, my biggest and happiest influences were: ¿ living in the mountains of Colorado ¿ experiencing Brownies and Girl Scouts ¿ Laura Ingalls Wilder's 'Little House' books ¿ Helen Keller and her teacher, Annie Sullivan ¿ caring for my baby sister ¿ creative expression in dance class ¿ going to Sunday School In 1978, as newlyweds, my husband, Kevin, and I set out for the wilds of Canada intending to live the 'Back-to-the- Land' homesteading lifestyle in the tiny log cabin we built before winter set in. The cold, darkness and silence were crushing. The isolation brought intense loneliness. Could I somehow overcome the Limitations and seek Possibilities? Volunteering was the key to open the doors.
Autorenporträt
About the Author In 1978, 20-year-old, newlywed Eleanor made a pledge: "I want to get married, go out west, build a log cabin, raise a bunch of kids, volunteer in my community and then write a book about it." 37 years later, in 2014, to fulfill the last part of the pledge, she submitted her first manuscript,"10 Days in December." Five days later, her doctor had the test results. Cancer arrived when she had other plans. Eleanor kept a journal which has become this book, filled with hope, to encourage others entering the decision-making maze which is the Cancer Journey. This is BOOK 5 in the 10 DAYS - 1 VOICE memoir series following Eleanor's Back-to-the-Land lifestyle with her husband and four children in the mountains of British Columbia, Canada.
