Photographer, Poet, Philosopher
~~~ 30 yr Survivor of a brain stem tumor. Rebecca was diagnosed as a teenager and has dealt with lingering side effects ever since. 6 years earlier, at age 8, a stranger handed Rebecca a delicate, white handkerchief with a yellow rose in the corner. Just that one act of kindness has remained with Rebecca ever since, reminding her that one person can make a huge difference in this world. Rebecca's dedication to building connection is tenacious and will only grow stronger.
