Fight For Your LIfe

Stories, strategies, and straight talk to help you push through life’s toughest battles.

Whether it’s health, mindset, or personal challenges, this series is about one thing:

Never Quitting.

Why I Am Writing This Series

Fight For Your Life started with a hard truth — my words could help people, but I had stopped sharing them. This series is my course correction: practical lessons, hard-earned perspective, and unapologetic grit for anyone facing battles they didn’t choose but refuse to lose.

Your Story Matters

Fight For Your Life exists to share strategies, perspective, and grit from real people. My intention is simple: to gather voices from fighters, loved ones, and caregivers so that no one in the fight feels alone. Together, these stories can become a source of hope and practical help for anyone facing battles they didn’t choose but refuse to lose.

How You Can Help:

  • Fighters: Share what keeps you moving forward and the lessons you’ve learned in your fight.

  • Loved Ones: Tell us what it’s like to walk beside someone you care about and what you’ve discovered along the way.

  • Caregivers: Offer your perspective from the front lines — what gives you hope and what you wish patients and families knew.

Your words may appear on the Fight For Your Life blog or become part of the upcoming book. Most importantly, they may help someone else keep fighting.

Each form takes about 10 minutes. At the end, you’ll have the option to volunteer for a longer interview. You may remain anonymous.

Fight For Your Life I – It Starts (and Ends) With Attitude

Since I started writing about this experience nearly two years ago, I have received a lot of feedback about my attitude. I have shown the ability to put a positive spin on just about any situation that we have encountered regardless of how serious and scary it might be.  These drifting thoughts were new for me. I was not sure that I was ready to add my own attitude to the list of things I was dealing with.
