About the Book

The book you are holding in your hand is the sequel to the one about my earlier years, and it's filled with more stories of my life's journey. Some of them will make you laugh, others will make you cry, and some will make you realize that it's our attitude and appreciation for life that makes every day worth living, that life is lived and despite everything surrounding us, we choose how to live it; that when we focus on what we want, we don't have to wait for anyone to rescue us; that when things are bad, we still have options; that consequences, when accepted, are empowering. These life lessons are worth your time. Take a few moments to help pass them on. Be part of that moment that helps me offer my voice to a world that can use it, that makes this world better. While I was fortunate to have a husband who loves me and children who are loyal and loving, I have spent most of my life fighting the tribulations brought on by a car accident, due to an uncaring drunk driver, that left me in a permanent state of pain. Yet through it all, I have learned how to deal with the torment, the frequent hospital visits and the unsettling health issues. I decided long ago that I would appreciate every new day, bury my pain behind my smile and remember that laughter is the best medicine. But my biggest challenge has been to forgive those people who left me with permanent scars, both physical and emotional. Yet, it's those scars that have become the foundation of my healing and the reason that I am able to be a shoulder for others. I've had to retire my scissors and many of the other things that gave me great joy in life, but my life isn't over, yet. Every day is a blessing with new challenges, and I'll treat whatever comes the same way that I always have. I will continue to be thankful to God for my life and for giving me the joy of being a loving wife, mother and grandmother. And I will continue to treat others the way I have always wanted to be treated.
About the Author: As a young woman Christine was a successful hairdresser, an impressionable make-up artist and a flourishing model. However, her career ended suddenly when a severe car accident caused by a drunk driver over 44 years ago, left her suffering with severe chronic pain and robbed her of her enjoyable career. Unfortunately, this was just one of seven car accidents that she has endured over the years. Ms. Hannon is also a three-time cancer survivor, and combined with her accidents she has undergone 32 surgeries over the years. Someone once said that Christine was the unluckiest person they had ever met, but her husband, Ron, is quick to correct them and say that she is luckiest person because although she lives in the torment of pain, she is still alive and walking. With a life full of ongoing and unexpected adventure, and hairdressing stories that leave listeners begging for more, it came as a challenging proposal when her family suggested that she write a book. She was already a successful poet as she'd been writing for as long as she can remember, but she didn't have any formal training in art or writing and was concerned if she would be able to write a book. Yet, she had a desire to share her stories and inspire others to live their dreams, and so she decided to rely strictly on the raw talents provided by God. She took the incredible voyage of her life and gathered it together with her fascinating hairdressing stories and started to write. It is her hope that she can pass her strength on to others through her books so they will never let circumstances in own lives cause them to give up on themselves, either. Christine Hannon is a 70-old medically retired woman who lives in Ontario, Canada with her family. She and Ron were married 51 years ago when they were both 19 years old, and these have been interesting and adventurous years for both of them. They have three amazing children-two sons and one daughter, and a granddaughter and a grandson who bring Christine so much joy that she can't help but brag about them. Ms. Hannon takes great pride in being a happy, positive and giving person who likes to share as much as she can with others. This cannot always be physical, but her motto for life is that "laughter is contagious" and she has plenty of that to go around. Christine is a self taught artist who uses her talent as therapy to deal with her daily pain. She is a firm believer in not giving up.
