She had to relearn and regain her hand eye coordination. While attending cognitive retraining in early 2010 she met and fell in love with Jaime Biggerstaff. A Valentine's Day wedding in 2011 in Tucson, AZ following a gem show, is proof that God has a plan for us all, even when disaster strikes, there was a rainbow with a silver lining. As part of her therapy she taught Jaime how to bead which helped her to relearn and remember her creative side. They have been traveling in a RV across the country doing art shows since Oct. 2010. "It has been a wonderful healing journey" She loves nothing more than to take a pile of gemstones, beads, and a piece of leather and turn them into a beautiful creation bringing joy to others.
