Lumpectomy. Chemo. Radiation. Unexpected divorce. All in the same year. Most days, Betsy's heart felt as if it had been scraped raw by gravel. Betsy knew there were all kinds of ways she could numb the pain, but she wanted to make sure she was making her life better, not worse. She began writing these meditations, and she vowed to be real, to name how messy it can be to be human, all in the hopes that it might help others to survive, thrive, and live light. You can find some of these meditations in her book, A Hit of Hope.
