Jennifer, My Co-worker

“This is a wonderful day. I’ve never seen this one before.” Maya Angelou. I’m learning to embrace the small beauties of each day- the flower in bloom, the rain, the kindness in strangers. Don’t be in such a rush to figure everything out. Embrace the unknown. Let your life surprise you.

My sister Susan gave it to me for Christmas

This was an absolutely beautiful story that helps me realize I need to make sure to appreciate every day and every moment in that day! I am in recovery/sober 23
years and try hard to do this daily! I’m going to pass it on to the first person that inspires me this month at a recovery workshop I will be attending. Thank you Jon!

I am giving the 7 of hearts to Tevin. He responds quickly to any question or concern staff has and is always willing to drop everything in order to be there for our clients. Tevin always makes sure our clients have what they need and more!

SANDY

Friend and classmate from class of 1978

My life drastically changed 12/10/07 from a fall on the ice, resulting in a traumatic brain injury. Ending my career, and beginning 10 years of debilitating and worsening health due to brain swelling. Then in 2017 I was diagnosed with SLE Lupus. I chose not to do traditional medicine due to the side effects and damage they cause. I began looking into medical cannabis especially CBD, and began a regimen. I was totally on my own trying to figure out treatment and educating myself. After several months of trial and error and research, I made a breakthrough and my health drastically improved. I began helping others immediately after finding out a fellow classmate had cancer. After seeing my results and research 2 of my doctors referred other patients to me. It has now been over 2 1/2 years and I continue to help, consult, research and educate fellow patients. I have experienced 70% improvement in my brain injury, and management of my Lupus. But most importantly my quality of life and future have been returned to me. I feel strongly led to educate and help others with their medical cannabis journey. I do not charge patients for my services, as I don’t feel money should come in the way of better health for anyone. I also educate the cannabis and medical industry and community to better help patients. I have been very blessed to witness remarkable changes to lives of patients from infants to age 89, as well as their family. Especially difficult to treat medical conditions. Upon being contacted for help by another fellow classmate recently, I invited her to my farm. We had a great reunion and I was happy to share my knowledge and help her begin her journey. Today I had a very pleasant surprise in finding a thank you note in my mailbox along with this 7ofhearts card, thanking me for making a difference. Thank you Liz, you truly brought tears to my eyes and a smile to my heart. I will gladly pass it on, to encourage others to continue making a difference.

Lena Owens passed it to me... I’m going to share today when I meet someone that needs it most.

Battling cancer myself and realize that everyone has their own battles and people just need a kind reminder that they rate, they matter and the small things mean everything. Life is too short to not let people know that they are loved and appreciated. Pass the love, smiles and kind gestures on. Peace. Love.Happiness to all.
