Produktbeschreibung
Della Waggoner, born as Fidela Perez Olivarez in a quaint South Texas town, draws deep inspiration from the tapestry of her life. Born among fourteen children, on a humble farm without electricity, using the Sears catalog as toilet paper, her humble upbringing becomes the crucible of resilience, empowering her to face life's diverse trials ahead. Reflecting on the past, she acknowledges the hidden blessings she was fortunate to have as she entered the US Air Force and later became a registered nurse. As an adult in her own story, she navigates the twists and turns, realizing that each challenge, both personal and professional, is a stepping stone to growth. Della's life took a profound turn when, as a registered nurse, her second child was diagnosed with Werdnig-Hoffmann Syndrome, a rare and life-threatening disease with a grim life expectancy. Undeterred, Della fought passionately for her son's quality of life, defying the odds as he miraculously thrived for almost 29 years.
Autorenporträt
Currently calling Northern California home, Della Waggoner shares her life with her husband, Wayne, and their beloved rescue dog, Murphy. The proximity of family - Ian, Deidra, and McKinsey - adds warmth to her surroundings. The spirit of exploration remains alive as Della, Wayne, and their loved ones frequently traverse the country and Europe. In the words of her "golden child," Della believes, "Life is always happening; you just have to keep moving forward." With this mantra, she embraces the journey, ever-evolving, and ever-grateful. Her response: "And that we will, mì hijito."
