About
Suzanne is a former journalist who writes readable memoirs and uplifting novels* that shine a light on hidden lives. Her most recent, collaborative work, ‘Oh Hell’, combines the best of both genres. “I grew up hearing so many stories about my Great Aunt Frey, who nursed soldiers during the Second World War, was interned and died just after liberation. Aunt Frey’s diaries of her nursing years in 1920s London are both funny and revealing. A century after she first entered the hospital she called ‘St Clement the Uncareful’, I’ve been able to complete the work she began. There’s honestly nothing quite like this memoir out there, and I’m proud to have helped my great aunt to tell her story.” Suzanne lives in Wiltshire, UK with her family.
* Suzanne’s first novel will hopefully be published soon…

I totally agree with you, where one focuses the mind, emotions and life intention can profoundly effect the outcome of their life…even writing these words give me hope..’Peace, Love, Inspiration, Positive thinking’!

I look forward to reading more of your blog. I meditate a lot, too. Through illness, I’ve learned a lot already and continue to learn as much as I can. I also try to educate and inspire. Off to read some more of your posts. Have a great weekend.
Peace,
Tammy:)

Healing is a long road and takes commitment and strength to stand apart from the herd.. Sharing and healing others gives me faith that this is the true way of spirituality…Religion is a choice not a process…I feel most of us including myself had been or still are confused and thought they had to choose one over the other ‘Spirituality vs Religion’…how silly of a thought..Some day our planet will understand the unity principle. Love & Blessings to all!

And you, Diane. I value your words, ‘commitment and strength’ because each time I write about personal experience, I do feel exposed – I can’t hide among the herd! But it’s worth it.

The truth is what heals and to be vulnerable in this way is the Spiritual way. My experiences came from the rooms of AA in which I was a nurse/counselor. This taught and demonstrated to me how to be honest and value each day. Addiction was their teacher, wholistic healing was mine, however, it does not matter what gets one on the path for in spirit all is the One. Suzanne, I love your share and others too, thanks.
