AUTHOR / ADVOCATE / WELLNESS FACILITATOR:

I close my eyes and let my fingers fly across the keys until I feel clear again, my thoughts quieting. Patterns begin revealing themselves within the silent spaces between the words. I keep digging, keep writing�hopeful to regain a sense of balance. My motivation for this new obsession? To find my north star in the cloudy night sky. To become healthy and happy once again. And above all else to manifest a cure for my daughter... Emma.

"Nothing touches us more meaningfully than the story of a parent's care for a child-in-need. As the father of a diabetic, I understand Julie's roller coaster of despair, frustration, and hope. The love we feel for our kids is unlike any other emotion in the human spectrum, and capturing it in prose is an art. With gratitude and congratulations to Julie...
