25.01.2022 When you look forward and hold your arms out to the side; you cant see behind your hands. That is the past. The future is uncertain. Today is the present (17/10/83)

25.01.2022 17-10-1983 Today I celebrate 35 years of extra living. It hasnt always been perfect but Ive learnt to grow and love myself despite all odds. #LIVELIFE

25.01.2022 So I visited the surgeon who is happy to operate on me to increase my airway from it's current 15% capacity. Only trouble is: 1.) She must perform a tracheostomy (incision in my throat to provide an alternate airway) while I'm awake; before she'll operate. 2.) For every increase in airway that she creates; there WILL be a loss of voice. I'm guttered to say the least.... What a choice See more

22.01.2022 Look what's been brought to my attention................. So humbling! .....at Patterson River Secondary College.

20.01.2022 The Universe has sure tested me over the last month.... with strangers asking me almost on a daily basis "What's wrong with your voice?" I swear; if I had a dollar for every time that I'd been asked this over the last 31 years; I'd be a millionaire. Still....it doesn't get any easier. I've answered this question in many ways over the years...with good and bad results. The last verbal attack on me ended in me slapping a guy on the face....not once, but twice. Then I asked my friends for their opinion. They came up with a variety of suggestions but I decided on a new answer which I've used over the last 2 weeks with mixed responses. I now say: "It's normal for me!" Who else has had a similar frustration in life???

20.01.2022 Be the light you want others to shine upon you!

20.01.2022 Yesterday is History. Tomorrow is a Mystery. Today is a Gift. That's why it's called Present! Treat it as such!

20.01.2022 Want a real "can't put it down book?"............. "Victim Or Victorious: A True Survivor's Story" by Shelley Anson available Internationally through Amazon or eBay (varying prices) or within Australia $25 (including postage).

19.01.2022 Imagine the difference if you started each day like this!

17.01.2022 "If you can't say something nice; don't say it at all!" (Ray Anson)

16.01.2022 "Loved People are Loving People" (Katherine Hepburn) xxxxxxx

15.01.2022 Life doesn't always go the way you want it to and there are certainly highs and lows along the journey but one thing is for sure...... Life is what you make of it! May 2016 bring Love, fun, adventure and smoother sailing for all. Love Shelley xxxxxxx

14.01.2022 When I got my tracheostomy tube out on Fathers Day 1985, I believed that my scarred airway (with 15% airway capacity) was as good as it would ever get. Sometimes I get frustrated with it but mostly I'm positive. What else can I do?? Then last month, my surgeon (the best in Australia) said there was a new surgeon in town...one that had done a fellowship in America on airway reconstructions and that he wanted me to see her. SHOCK, TEARS and WELL BURIED GRIEF resurfaced which was a worry for all around me. Then I surrounded myself with family, friends and colleagues (Thanks to all) and went to see her. A month to gather information and fast forward to today.... I see her again this afternoon to see what she proposes. Wish me luck!!!!!

03.01.2022 HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO ME...... here's a snippet of my book.... October 17, 1983 just an ordinary day for most, but for me it was the most mind altering, life-changing experience I could ever encounter. At age eleven, I was an A grade student; happy, fun-loving and madly infatuated with my older brothers best friend.... Id arrived home from school that day with a shocking headache and gone to bed. Then I heard the familiar voice of Beau* and my heart melted. There was two years between myself and my two siblings. Rodney was thirteen and Darren was fifteen. We all played Baseballyes even me! The boys were training for selection into the Victorian State Team so they didnt muck around when practicing. Beau had come around, himself keen on the sport to break his glove in. What better way to earn points than to help him with the ritual! So glancing in the mirror, as Im notoriously known for, to make sure I looked okay, I shot quietly out the front door and across the road to the excitement of my brothers checking out Beaus glove. Rod, Darren and I quickly jumped into a three man relay throwing scenario, likened to an outfielder relaying the ball back into the diamond via a middle man. As Beau was watching us, the sun was setting after a beautiful spring day. Rodney threw the ball to me; I turned and threw it to Darren before ducking down so he could return it to Rod. Then it happened. We must have paused for a second and a spontaneous change of tactics which I hadnt predicted sealed my fate. Darren threw the ball not to Rod but to me and I realized a fraction too late. As I raised my gloved hand to catch the speeding, fluorescent ball, the magnificent sun pierced its way through a huge gum tree to my right and in doing so, blinded me. The baseball collected me on the left side of my head and totally shattered my temporal bone. It was as if time froze. The last thing I remember was the look on Beaus shocked face as I gracefully fell into unconsciousness, before I hit the road. I never saw him again.

02.01.2022 So humbling to learn that a young boy has chosen "Victim Or Victorious: A True Survivor's Story" to write his school book review on. He even thinks it would be nice to have me talk at his school :) I would LOVE that! (Maiyurma) xxxxxxx

01.01.2022 When you look forward and hold your arms out to the side; you can’t see behind your hands. That is the past. The future is uncertain. Today is the present (17/10/83)
