About Jane Ploetz
Jane lives with her husband, John, in Vista, Calif., where they brought up their two sons, Sam and Steve. Sam was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis at 5 weeks old in 1980, and lived abundantly for nine years. After 1992, Jane taught middle schoolers at a public visual and performing arts magnet school for many years. Today, she is a ghostwriter, helping others write their memoirs, and is now sharing her own story with you, in healing and wonder, pain, and love. In her free time, Jane enjoys camping, backpacking, gardening, reading, piano, and staying active with her family.
