Dear Susan

Are you or someone you know facing a life-changing illness?

When we experience the shock, the losses, and the harsh demands of pain and endless recovery, often devastation is all we see. Locked in a prison of unknowns, our hearts cry out, but the deep anguish goes unspoken as though it is our secret to bear alone. As hope dissipates, we wonder how to get through another day.

Ronda Barney is intimately acquainted with devastation, hopelessness, and the haunting unknowns of illness. Forged out of her own healing journey, she was led to write letters of hope to a fictitious Susan. But, for two years, the letters laid quietly in Ronda's journal. Then, miraculously, and right on time, she met a woman named Susan who was facing a terminal illness. Ronda began sending these letters to her new friend, opening a pathway of comfort, hope, and peace amid her suffering.

Ronda is inviting you on the same journey. These letters will address the complexity of your anguish and loss while providing a bridge to finding

New joy, unconditional love and meaning

Strength to give voice to your pain

Freedom to be fully alive

You can do more than just get through today. You can experience life fully alive! Come. Goodness and beauty await you, even now.
