What if you were told; “You only had one month to live.”  What would you do?

On July 1st, 2014, I began reading a book entitled ‘One Month to Live.’ The concept being you have just received news you have one month to live. How would that be received?  Who would you go see? What would you tell them? To put it mildly, this book made me think. And that is my goal for this show: to encourage thought! I don’t claim to have all the answers, but I do know a lot of the questions. One of my favorite quotes is from Henry Ford: “Thinking is the hardest work there is, which is why so few engage in it.”

I chose to name the show “Radio That You Can’t Make Up” because I want to focus on things in life that you cannot make up. Whether it is a current event, a humorous anecdote, or miraculous story; I simply want to inspire thought. Not to think as I do, but to think for yourself.

The objective of  Fillin' the Blanks is to provide a reliable service to you during the pre and post adoption stage.  Preparing for your new child takes more then paperwork and setting up the room. How do you cope with the stresses of the new household ?

 

As an adoptive mom of two our family of three grew to a family of five in an instant in 2005.

 

Because I remember the days I cried my eyes out. The loneliness, the questions–if it weren’t for my small band of friends becoming my “makeshift adoption support group” I wouldn’t have made it. The process  was tough and putting the many pieces of adoption together is overwhelming. Making any part of the process easier for you is my goal. So I decided to create adoption support and a safe haven for other families taking this journey.  I want to help you prepare for the stresses of the household that will be.  Choices that will empower you and help you find the best solutions for fine tuning your families life BEFORE, DURING and AFTER the adoption process ~ helping you have a strong base from the beginning.
