Wellness in Motion

30/12/2025

Big thank you to everyone who supported UBUNTU Praise and Wellness in Motion despite Hurricane Melissa forcing us to postpone our function!

Those who contributed beforehand who never requested a refund, thank you.

I was overwhelmed by the faith and altruism of those who started contributing after Hurricane Melissa so that we could still help those who needed us most.

Your contributions helped us reach out to cancer patients affected by the hurricane.

Grateful for your kindness and partnership in spreading wellness and love 🙏.

Looking forward to continued support as we reschedule and keep pushing forward!

Indeed, I am thankful for you holding my hand as I journey in purpose on purpose.

Some of you have already received your token, if you contributed and have not received your token, please reach out.

If you would still like to contribute, please reach out, great needs still exist.
UBUNTU!

SUNDAY RAMBLING

I have a 5-year-old going on 50 that lives part-time with me. She's as smart as a whip, they would say, with too many words in her vocabulary for her age.

At our gate, we have a patch filled in with river stones.

She decided she was going to play with them, so from breasts to pregnant woman to cooking she was having a grand time. A young man passing said "Little girl mind the stones and your fingers " and before I could look up the 5-year-old whipped back "Mind your tongue and my business "

Help!

Some of my friends are saying it's me she's learning from, but I believe she's a breed unto herself.
I still laugh every time I remember 🤣 😂

Then, a few of my plants 🪴 needed attending to. So I got to it this morning. While tending to them, wiping the leaves with EM5, I got quite a few good mornings and conversations, and advice, and I even paused a few times to do some distributions and assistance.

But ....

A man came along, I don't know him, not acquainted with him...

"Bout she deh wipe dung flowers, wha di f###x she deh do ah man deya wah sumaddy fi rub dem dung to f###x" and he kept quarreling all the way up the road. Mi laughed so till, I had to leave the plants and sit down and phone a friend to help me laugh 😃

My healing journey is challenging, life has so many challenges for me at this time, but it was just this morning that I said to myself, and then to someone else, each morning is a blank slate and we get to decide how to title it and I intend and will be have a good morning.

After that man passed, nothing can make me not smile for a while.

Yes, got a few bad news today but....

How you face the day is really a choice!

Journey to healing and restoration

How are you this morning?
It's raining on the outside. I'm truly happy for the rain 🌧, and I'm even thankful. Catching water, and allowing some plants to dance in the rain, kind of wish I could too 😆.

Ahh, no exercise this morning, just because.

I NEED YOUR HELP

There is a need that I need your help to fix. I need plastic containers like the ones in the pictures below.

So many people affected by Hurricane Melissa are challenged with storing the food items they received or purchased safely.

If you are impressed to donate and impact a life please reach out to me.

Together, we can arrange pickups. I promise to take pictures where needed.

Please let us help navigate a journey already fraught with challenges.

Let's stop the spread of Leptospirosis and other health challenges.

The cancer journey can indeed be unpredictable and stormy, filled with ups and downs, twists, and turns. It is a journey that can test one's faith, resilience, and courage.

The Storm:

The unknown can be overwhelming, making it difficult to plan for the future, causing fear and anxiety.

The fear of the unknown, fear of treatment, and fear of outcomes can be debilitating.

Grief, anger, sadness, and hope swirl together, creating turbulence and making it hard to navigate each day.

Finding Hope:

Surrounding yourself with loved ones, support groups, and healthcare professionals can provide a sense of stability.

Holding onto faith like a compass, prayer, and spiritual practices can offer comfort and strength.

Taking care of physical, emotional, and mental well-being can help navigate the journey.

Rainbow in the Storm:

Finding joy in everyday moments, relationships, and experiences can bring light to the darkness, creating a passage of hope.

The journey can foster personal growth, resilience, and a deeper understanding of oneself and others.

Connecting with others who understand the journey can provide a sense of belonging and a supportive community.

While the cancer journey is unpredictable, it is also a journey of discovery, growth, and hope.

I live each day in and with hope, opening my heart to new experiences and enjoying surprises.

One of my aha moments on this journey is learning, in humility, to allow others to experience the joy of giving to me, as I have experienced over the years by giving.

I am developing the gift of receiving, and I am humbled and blessed.

Yes, journeying with breast cancer is unpredictable. I took a decision that I would have no "bad" days.

I have challenging days, yes, but I decided to reframe the narrative. No, I am not living in Egypt, so I am not sitting in (the river Nile) denial. I have so so days, good days, great days, but every day I choose to walk on Sonshine.

One of the things I chose to do is LIVE. I am not making "if I get better or when I get better" plans. I am living and growing into my best self. I am journeying on purpose, creating the person I want to live with forever, the person I can be proud of today for tomorrow.

A few years ago, a man I met 13 years before that day and his wife asked me if I knew who I was, and like Jesus, I asked him, "Who do you say I am?" His response sits with me always. He said, "There are many who remind us that there is light at the end of the tunnel, and that is good. But you, you stand in the storm with us and cause us to see the rainbow 🌈 of hope in the middle of the storm. " WOW.

So I decided that I would be my rainbow 🌈 with the grace of God's light in my own life, and part of that is doing things I enjoy. One of the things I enjoy is learning, and so I decided to reach out to Mr. Peter Gooden and Nedz Nedz Buffet institute to do the Management Course. 🤣 after he decided to accept me into the programme. The journey was challenging because chemotherapy is impacting my memory, which was already compromised from a previous illness. But with the team I was placed in "team Carrot 🥕 " an excellent group of human beings, and Sir Gooden as I like to call him, I navigated, completed and was certified and I am so proud of this achievement.

I have no clue what tomorrow holds, but today I stand, proud of how I am journeying with triple negative metastatic breast cancer.

As part of my awareness journey, I am asking you to believe in us and support us to live today.

Yes, it is challenging to journey with cancer, but life brings hope. I am busy living by His di
