Gail Boenning finds herself on the receiving end of three words nobody want to hear: You have cancer.
She takes the blow, licks her wounds, and sets to work turning her experiences into life lessons.
She's either going to turn cancer treatment into her last great adventure, or survive.
Either way, she decides her work is to bring light to the dark.
Step into the waffle-weave robe
Of an optimist who journeys
Through diagnosis, treatment, and cure
Of triple-negative breast cancer.
Forty-four scenes
Invite you to
Rise.

We have the
Power

One moment
At a time.
With a can-do attitude, and a belief that life happens for, rather than to us, Gail leads us through one of her big scaries -- Cancer. If you're open to new ways of seeing and being, you'll come out the other side stronger, lighter, and ready to dance.
Gail's series of vignettes have inspired me to open myself up to the unexpected beauty of everyday moments. It has also inspired me to share my own joy with others. I have started to pay more attention to the small things in life, and I have found that there is always something to be grateful for. I have also started to share my own stories with others, to lean into my creativity, and I have found that it is a great way to connect with people and make a difference in the world.

Gail Boenning wanders, wonders, and writes. She's grateful for stories, books, movies, and television shows that transport her directly into the hearts and minds of countless real and fictional characters. She writes with hope... believing words and stories carry magic to awaken soulful stirrings in our hearts. Once upon a time, Gail wrote down a story of her own. In so doing, she discovered that all humans are creative. She believes her stories remind readers of their own inventive nature.
Gail writes daily love letters with the aid of her muses: Calliope, Thalia, and Urania. In 2022 she was diagnosed, treated, and cured of breast cancer. She wrote and published POISE: Facing Cancer with Grace and Resilience to show others that we can show up, grow, and thrive through adversity.
Gail is available to speak about her creative work and/or her cancer journey.
