... Surviving and Thriving -- Doing What is Needed
realization that what one individual does affects the lives of many is becoming evident to our society and world. The use of masks and vaccinations are increasing, and our nation is understanding that protecting each other and proactively helping others can be as beneficial as receiving support personally.
Persistence and endurance are the key factors to success whether it is to stop the spread of Covid 19, to influence lawmakers on the need for radon reduction policy, or to reach out to the news media in order to share the message that radon exposure can easily be prevented with testing and mitigation.
Visualizing the desired outcome of all schools being tested for radon and mitigated if the radon level is elevated and all homes are tested for radon before occupancy and mitigated if high, can be both productive and motivating to the radon-induced lung cancer survivor or relative of a victim of radon exposure.
May your journey of survivorship be productive and your new endeavors of persistence and innovation enable you to thrive.
