Be Alive With Me

October 1, 2019


I’m not very good at making specific plans. Just meet me under the sky somewhere and be alive with me. – Victoria Erickson 

Cancer is a weird and very personal journey. It’s difficult for people to understand who have not experienced it, and I truly understand that. I used to be the same way. Even though I’m not going to get out of this alive, I AM still living and plan to grab all the life I can possibly get while I’m living and breathing.

I still love mountains and sunrises, kind and compassionate people, trees and waterfalls and nature in all her glory. I know it’s hard for people, but try to see me as a person who is living rather than dying. 

Ribbons of love from my heart to yours, Pam

More about Pam

I spent decades climbing mountains figuratively, and finding obstacles on every path I chose. I grew so depressed as an aging mother to adult children with special needs that I had lost who I was. That's when I discovered hiking and the mountains near my home. There's nothing like the peaceful solitude of watching the sunrise from a mountain top. Nature feeds my soul and has made me whole again.
