At the age of 22, I moved to live on Kibbutz Hanita in Israel. I met my husband Boaz and had three daughters, Netta, Eden, and Yahav.In 1996, we moved back to Port Elizabeth, for a year, to spend time with my parents. We ended up staying for six years before moving in August 2001 to Greensboro, North Carolina in the United States.In 2009, I started my own business and worked from home until 2019, when against all odds, after beating pancreatic cancer twice, I opened my store: “The Butterfly Effect.”The last few years have not been easy, but along with the difficult things, there have been even more wonderful ones.I have learned a tremendous amount about the importance of appreciating the small things in life, learning to live every day to the fullest without regrets, and not taking anything for granted.I had no intention of writing a book. I originally just started journaling for myself, but realized I wanted to share my story. This was probably one of the most cathartic, fun, scary, and enjoyable things I have done. If I can help anyone, even a little bit, by telling my story, then it will have been worthwhile. I hope you read and enjoy my book - I am excited to share it with you.view less
