Sue Waight shared her life journey with us on this episode and I really appreciated her attitude which shown through - choosing not to be a victim but instead take difficult circumstances and learn from them to help others. "I felt I had two choices, I could either be a victim and let that keep me down, or I could use that experience as a positive way to move forward with my life - and I chose the latter." We also find out a lot about the Canterbury West Coast Welfare Guardian Trust and the work it is doing (see website below). We also learn about her blog site Parkies and Me where she is sharing about her journey with being diagnosed with Parkinsons.
