Penname:

MotherJungle

My claim to fame:

Opening coconuts with a single bound.

Ten or fifteen years ago if you would have asked me if I'd be a single mother of two children (one of them with special needs) living in Central America, I'd have chuckled at the silliness of it all.

I've found paraise in Costa Rica, but it doesn't look like a postcard. It looks more like heartache, and vomit, and stiches, and holding on, and death, and life again.

Years ago an astrologist told me I was an old soul, on the planet for the twelfth time. This was it - my last chance. So buck up or become worm food. On to the races!
