Esther's Assessment

Who I am

Inoperable cancer

I saw the surgeon

My son-in-law researched

Why not in Florida?

My pain

Doctors don't know

Who I am


I used to be a language teacher. I've taught children with learning disabilities. I was also in a jewelry business. I'm an artist. I do soft fiber tapestry. I'm a housewife, a mother, a grandmother of seven ranging from almost nineteen to two. I have three daughters, three sons-in-law and we are now retired in Florida. I'm so busy working down there that I've forgot that I was retired. Until this set in with me, we were pretty happy-go-lucky people.
