This is Not a Typical New Horizons 123 Blog Post
There are no business tips… rather this is my sharing with you something that has become very important to me. Below is the what and why…
I received a phone call a month or so ago from the author of a book who was looking for someone to create a video book trailer. Her name is Sylvia Ramsey and she is a survivor of Bladder Cancer and much more – her life was filled with way too many harsh realities for one person to have to deal with. I read Sylvia’s manuscript prior to creating her video trailer and was totally mesmerized by her strength, courage, sense of humor, and dedication to spending the rest of her life to helping others with Bladder Cancer. Sylvia tells her story in an effort to reach out to those who are diagnosed with Bladder Cancer deal with their circumstance and to raise awareness of this Cancer to the level of other Cancers. Bladder cancer does not have to be a death sentence if diagnosed early.
I became so much in awe of Sylvia. If I had gone through what she has gone through in her life, I would be rocking back and forth in a corner in a fetal position for the rest of my life! It is for this reason, that I have decided to donate my time in helping her help others! Please help us and SHARE with ANYONE AND EVERYONE – you never know who you might be helping.
Raising Awareness of Bladder Cancer by Survivor Sylvia Ramsey
A presentation by Sylvia that I turned into a video to tell her story and share important facts about Bladder Cancer.
Here is the book trailer I created for Sylvia’s Book – worth re-posting!
Traveling a Rocky Road with Love Faith and Guts: Book Trailer by Sylvia Ramsey
Traveling a Rocky Road with Love, Faith, and Guts: Bladder Cancer, COPD, Caregiving, Polio and More has Just been released on Amazon and is now available for sale. Sylvia is donating 100% of the proceeds to The Bladder Cancer Society. You can grab your copy HERE!
Sylvia is also donating the proceeds from her other books ALL to The American Bladder Cancer Society and can be purchased HERE.
Whatever you can do to help spread the word will be very much appreciated. You don’t have to buy the book, but think how easy it is to simply SHARE the information wherever you can. You never know who you might be helping.
Thank you Sylvia for showing me that with love, faith, and guts, anything is possible!

Two thumbs-up for Sylvia! She’s really a good example for those who are battling towards cancer. I really admire her.
Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for sharing the story about Sylvia Ramsey – I don’t know if I would have had the strength to make it through that kind of event myself.
Life is a matter of challenge in life, there’s nothing impossible in this world if you are able to lift up your heart and minds to God… Truly inspiring!
You offered us so many interesting ideas and thoughts, and inspires everyone that read your post. thanks for the inspiring story.
Julie, I’m so glad you are raising bladder cancer awareness! Due to my tweets this article was re-published on http://paper.li/djones1509/1329966275
If anyone clicks on the headline of the article they end up on your blog!
Julie… Of course I’m thrilled that you are paying tribute to a friend and raising awareness for bladder cancer. What I appreciate in addition to this is that you can step away from “business” and show us that you are a human being full of empathy. (and I’d love to see that everywhere in the world) Well done!
Hi Keyuri. You know that Sylvia became a great friend – we didn’t know each other prior to her finding me on Linkedin to make her a video.
Thanks for the praise but I REALLY believe that anyone reading her story and “meeting” her would do the same. She is THAT inspiring!
Catarina – that is so awesome – THANK YOU! I keep saying and mean “You never know who you might be helping”!
Hi Julie…Thank you for all the things you have proviuded us here…Great job!
We need people like Sylvia in our society who are spreading awareness about fatal disease, their work and their attitude inspires a lot of people and I really salute her.
This kind of awareness can really bring a huge help to all of us in order to know about this kind of sick and how prevent it then, hope you will continue spreading the word of health..
Sylvia is one of the greatest! She serves an inspiration to all who is suffering from cancer and she is a living example of strong will and faith in God. Great job Sylvia.
Thanks for sharing this..
Hi Julie,
Surely I will help you through sharing this. Surviving cancer is indeed hard I really admire the strength of those people that even in that situation they still can smile. Great post!
Thanks SO much Vera – you and me both – Sylvia is the strongest person I have ever had the fortune of meeting!
HI Cley – yes she is and yes she does. I am so glad you agree and will share
You did a phenomenal job on the videos… I didn’t realize that bladder cancer was so prevalent. It’s shocking to see how many well-known personalities have died from this terrible disease. Sylvia’s story is inspirational. It’s so nice to read about the survivors and their strong gutsy recovery.
Hi Caroline, Thanks – it was a very rewarding experience to be able to create these videos for Sylvia. I didn’t either until I met her. It is up to folks like us to help her and The American Bladder Cancer Society raise the awareness level and help save lives!
How I wish you will continue creating this health awareness blog in order that we/ I able to know what I supposed to do if something not good happens in my health…
Thanks for sharing with us, all of this stuff…. I know that it provides a huge help to all of us to be aware with bladder cancer…

Bladder cancer is not just a simple case were you can still throw your smile, good thing if all of us are aware with this kind of illness, in order we can avoid or good enough in this status..
