On August 12, 2021 I was diagnosed with breast cancer (ductal carcinoma and invasive ductal carcinoma) that was spreading quickly. On March 28, 2022, I lost my mom to cancer. This book is a journal of poetry that was written between the day I was diagnosed and the one year anniversary my mother's passing. If you want to learn how I overcame challenges, how I processed grief while still living a full life, and mostly, how I chose to prioritize joy over despair,
take a peek into the most challenging 2 years of my life. 

When you purchase Learning to Float, 12.27% will be donated to Cancer Support Community, which played a huge role in helping me publish this book. They offer free services, like writing groups, to people like me. 

Wondering about that 12.27%?
It's my momma's birthday.
