Ep. 45: HOPE - how to give and receive it

When I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1998, I started a hope chest for my imaginary grandchildren. I bought children’s books, Winnie the Pooh bookends and a tea set to help me believe I would get to grow old, even though I was only 41 and my daughter was only 19. I wanted to believe past the day I was in, especially the days when I was bald and sick from chemotherapy. Now, I’m 64 and playing with those real grandchildren, who give me hope that the best is always yet to come.
