What is 'normal?' Is there really a reference point that can be used to determine what is really 'normal'. "To each his own" they say, as one person's normal may be another person's ab-normal. In Barbara's case, like most of us, her life was normal; good health, moved from South Africa to the USA,, all was generally well, until one day, she noticed a change on her husband's skin. What was once flat and round, changed shape, color and texture that when she brought it to his attention, he totally ignored it for another year when it became even more prominent and noticeable that something was definitely different!

A visit to the doctor revealed that it was cancerous and it was so far gone that he had less than a year to live. 

What is normal now? How does life look to you at this point upon hearing such news. It doesn't have to be cancer or something health related. It can be the loss of a job, house, loved one, investments - rather anything that you have become attached and accustomed to that turns your life, what you consider normal to be a roller coaster ride!

Like Barbara Harrison, you jump in the deep end and just face whatever it is head on without even realizing that 'you' also need taking care of and you become oblivious to what is happening to you, around you and inside you that by the time you catch yourself, you realize that you don't even recognize who you are!

Barbara has some really great tips and lessons she shares on how she came to see herself again and bounced back into living by creating 'a new normal'
