About Me

This Vancouver Island Medium's roots are strongly tied to family, friends, her love of nature and family traditions.  Born in Duncan and raised in Victoria, this is where the magic bean in her real life fairy tale began.  She took for granted from childhood that every household and family life felt like heaven on earth.  She felt everything from the time she was born able to see things that others didn't.  Her childhood fostered love, respect, kindness, generosity and charity for all mankind lead by her gifted parents Archie and Kathy demonstrating daily acts of kindness for the greater good of others.

Whether it was school studies, choir, fundraising, sports, fishing - Archie taught her brother's to sing to the fish, or stand and sing the National Anthem with their hand over their hearts while watching Hockey Night in Canada - or Kathy baking for others and driving the children to practices and games, life was an adventure.  Love was the household language and the energy of it along with faith threading both sides of the family together.  Cheryl didn't realize that her Aunt Marg's tea leaf readings and animal communication and her Aunty Bea's courage and strength to live with the physical scars of cancer would become fore front in her own future.  At 14, she was diagnosed with a rare disease called "scleroderma" which turns the body to stone and spent time in Seattle Children's Hospital as well as specialists at the Pittsburgh and Toronto hospitals with hope for answers only to find her journey of healing would take her much further than the quest for a cure.She drew healing from Natural medicine coupled with her team of doctors.  Physicians have said that her spiritual beliefs, gifts and desire to try alternative medicine have been a large part of her continued recovery and she has taught them to see life as a journey of possibilities.  Seeing the children in Seattle gave her in her own words "gratitude for the life she had already been given".  At 41, she could no longer walk and her speech was fading.  A urologist discovered a birth defect in her kidney which resulted in a lifesaving surgery.  It was through studies of healing, natural medicine and spiritual development, and dedication to helping others that carried her in her own life.  Her kind parents raised their children to love and lift people's spirits and respect that each and every person was a miracle born with their own gifts in this world.

Life is sacred and special.  Cheryl feels best when she is with family, friends, baking, walking her dogs on trails, listening to music, singing, dancing, skating, driving, fishing, camping or drinking tea at the ocean.
