The Universe works in such mysterious ways and you very well could be saving another young woman from the grips of a horrible disease. I haven't read the article that you submitted but I would think that would be the reason behind writing it in the first place. I felt your anxiety as I read your blog post. You are a terrific writer. : ) ~ Wendy Wow, did this bring tears to my eyes.

In fact, just yesterday, my best friend and I were talking about our worst parenting fears, and she was saying that the things she worries about most usually end up happening, as if she calls them forth, but that it's never as bad as she thinks it will be and ends up being a healing experience. Maybe a topic I need to write about myself? In any event, do post a link to your article when it is published! Even though it wasn't the journey you intended to be on, it sounds exciting. Kudos to you for taking the leap and saying, "YES!" This is uncanny, because this idea of “the thing you are most afraid of the thing you most need to do” keeps coming up for me lately.

Who knows? They may have never published the Jamaica piece but the one you submitted was brilliant. Looking forward to seeing you on the Inky pages a lot more!!
