Congrats, Kathy!
Sometimes, things happen just as they should.
Like yesterday, when I chose the random winner in my latest giveaway for the book Healing with Words: A Writer’s Cancer Journey, and the name Kathy C. came up.
I didn’t know much about Kathy, just that she wrote this comment to enter herself in the contest:
This sounds like a very inspiring book! I am currently battling the breast cancer dragon, and have tried to be consistent with journaling. This book sounds like just what I need to keep me motivated. Thanks for featuring it on your blog today!
I learned more last night, after informing Kathy of her good fortune, and reading her e-mail response:
I have had an especially “trying” day of managing chemo side effects today, so this is an unexpected blessing!
And now I know, Kathy was meant to win this prize. It may have been the very thing that turned her day around, and when she holds that new book in her hands, and she starts putting it to use, it could just smooth out the rough spots in what’s left on her road to recovery.
Yep, sometimes things happen just as they should. Enjoy your book, Kathy!
