Survival Sisterhood is dedicated to my dear friend, Colette Chavez-Walker, an eclectic miracle healer in her own right. She took control of her own recovery program and healed herself from Breast Cancer and then again with Bone Cancer. With strength, courage and unwavering belief in her body's ability to heal, and constant visualization of wellness, she survived long enough to watch me on TV. I dedicated my ALONE journey to her and in turn, she became my inspiration to endure 75 days in Labrador. She wanted to help me start Sacred Cedars Wilderness School, and she would be proud to see Survival Sisterhood blossom into a network of women supporting women.​
