To Rakiura & Beyond by Sandra Turner

I remember once, thinking what it would be like living in the body of a young woman I'd seen walking with ease down the other side of the street. This was a day when my own aches and pains were in sharp focus. For a moment, I fantasized that her life was a better one. Then the thought came: she was probably living with chronic endometriosis and this was one of her good days. This was not a vindictive, nasty thought, merely a recognition that no life is without its challenges. No one gets to live a full life without knowing what it is to be vulnerable - even those who look good on the outside. This book tells some of my story: a story of living with a disease that will most likely take my life. Over the years the horizon has continually shifted. At times it is hardly discernable and at others there is a clarity that is quietly confronting. Living well is the challenge and actively choosing what is at the centre of my life, the critical element. This 2011 Sandra Turner Paperback is in very good condition.
