THANK YOU FOR THE BIRTHDAY WISHES!!!! I celebrated my 58th year of being yesterday in Palo Alto, Los Altos & San Francisco. I’ve been through a lot physically and emotionally in this past year (4 surgeries in 5 months and 2 hospitalizations plus my best veg friend of 10 years recently and unexpectedly saying “I wasn’t on their spiritual plane and they didn’t want to be my friend anymore” which hurt me so much…..even more than the physical. I am an empath and a highly sensitive person so I feel deeply.
I celebrated yesterday with delicious food and with people who love this quirky weirdo and I walked over 5 miles (I couldn’t even stand, get up on my own, walk or barely even move seven months ago)! 
I Kaiser Union City and Kaiser San Leandro staff last week and provided professional therapeutic services to clients in 5 care facilities. On Friday, I’m Kaiser Fremont staff.
I am grateful the surgeons were able to save my stomach and stop the internal bleeding, and that all the diseased tissue is now out of my body! I have a few age spots and a few more gray hairs and a few more wrinkles, but I MADE IT and I weigh a lot less too!
I still feel I emanate joy, and I am worth friendship and love. I only want to give my friendship and love to those who want it and those who deserve it. After going through all this, I have a new perspective!
My spirituality is based on loving God and sharing the joys of veg with others and helping my disabled and disadvantaged clients to find joy….NOT on The Secret or The Celestine Prophecy. I’m not about veg cliques, bullying, exclusion or petty BS. I know I’m not everyone’s “cup of tea” but I’m grateful for people that like Matcha. LOL
