Radical Survivor

Nancy Saltman has had and survived cancer twice. But that could not have prepared her for the worst losses of her life. On an ordinary day, she got the phone call telling her that her husband and two sons, her whole family, had died in a plane crash. How would she find her way to a life she wanted to live? By stepping left, then right, she slowly created a new life. Some of the things that helped her rested on things she had always done, like helping others and writing. She realized her early life had prepared her for resilience, and that played a part as well. She didn't need to know what her new life would look like to begin living it. She simply had to step out in the certainty that the way froward would present itself. And it did.
