Dandelion Child in Flower - Autobiography

I am a motivational speaker and author on topics dealing with the interplay of dandelion children and chronic illness, quality of life versus disability, public assistance, etc.

 

I am the Dandelion Child who managed to flourish through mounds of asphalt, yearning for rays of the sun’s heat.

I have lived an imperfect life, to make it more perfect was beyond my wildest dreams. I am she who, flawed as she was, dared to believe in a light shining in the darkness. She who imagined that she had the right to the same life as you. She who is desperately afraid of not being able to please everyone. She who does not understand that promises can be broken, or that another human being can ever do anything bad.

My life has fallen apart repeatedly. Both in my childhood but also during my adult life. I am living with increasingly debilitating rheumatism alongside HIV, after fighting through very hard terminal illness due to multiple AIDS outbreaks. The hospital gave me less than two months to live.

I survived and like the dandelion I even reproduced/had children. devastatingly though, they were born prematurely. Life goes on with many ups and downs.

However, I am also still the silly girl, who breaks out into childish antics and song. I am she who is naively in love with life – and all it has to offer. And I am not shy to talk and write about it all – to give inspiration and courage to other people.

I offer you my fragility, my challenges and my honesty.

Please read my words with the honesty and strength of your heart – and use the insight you gain with wisdom!

 

I published my autobiography’Dandelion Child in flower’ after experiencing life threatening illness.

‘Dandelion Child in Flower’ is available as both e-book and paperback. Note: The paberback is only shipped in Denmark.

I have since published several other e-books and are currently writing a book about obtaining and maintaining the joy of working in spite of physical or mental challenges.
