The WSA met Tina Adams back in 2013 when her hubby, Chris, emailed Founder, Karen Shayne. He wanted to surprise his wife with a trip to the first SURVIVORville in Nashville. An ovarian cancer survivor and mother of two young girls, Tina had started Walk for Women, an organization to assist with the financial needs of those dealing with ovarian cancer. The surprise went off without a hitch and Tina spent the weekend of SURVIVORville 2013 networking and conversing with other women from around the country.
Tina stayed in touch with the WSA, so when this survivor took a survivor step of faith with her family recently, all of us were in to follow the journey – literally.
“We came up with this crazy idea to sell our house, everything in it, buy an RV, and tour our great country!’ stated Tina. “We plan to visit all 50 states over a two-year period while my hubby, Chris works and I home school our two daughters 9 and almost 11.
It all started May 2017, while sitting at their kitchen table in the busy suburbs of Atlanta. Chris half heartedly suggested they move out to the middle of nowhere, like Wyoming. Tina wasn’t all about Wyoming, but sat and thought about what it would look like to have their world turned upside down and came back with “Why don’t we just move into an RV and travel the country?” And so the seed was planted that day. No doubt this was quite the change for this active family of four living in a golf, swim & tennis community. The Adams had never even been inside an RV before! After a couple months of research, they took the plunge. Their house went on the market, sold in record time, the downsizing began as the RV was purchased.
Of course, only Tina could pull this off. And they have! This past week their journey of the past 90 days finally took flight.
