It isn't what happens to you, it's what you do when it happens.

Alicia Garey, Author

In this in depth interview Connie asks about Alicia's experience, the procedures she endured, and the hopeful future of modern science.

Alicia dedicates her story to all of us who have or will face a terrifying life challenge. As far as she can tell, the challenges do indeed come our way, and we learn from them. She didn't want the "gift" of cancer. Of course not. But it was a real eye opener to say the least.

Through the trauma of breast cancer Alicia Garey came out of the writing closet to share her experience and how she restored her balance. Facing the challenges of motherhood, running an interior design business while also a wife, daughter, sister and friend, Alicia celebrates the gift of life through a new lens, and finds the joy by seeing the light in her darkest hours.
