Dayna Haverland's Story

My referral to The Crocus Foundation has been nothing short of amazing.

"My life is truly blessed by “The Crocus Foundation” and everyone involved. I am becoming “Crocus-Minded” one day at a time."

After reading through The Crocus Foundations mission statement I knew with every ounce of my being that this was exactly what my soul, mind and body needed. Like a crocus flower I found the courage to “pop my little crocus head out of the ground” and have a consultation with Reagan Wright. For so long, I have helped everyone around me and I didn’t want to wait any longer. This was my time to bloom.

As in “The Crocus Prayer”… “It takes courage to be Crocus Minded… Knifing up through hard-frozen ground and snow sticking their necks out because they believe in Spring and have something personal to say about it.”

After being approved for “The Crocus Foundation Scholarship”, we started working through my personalized exercise program. Reagan listened to my needs and has tailored my program beautifully. As we work through my stretches and exercises, Reagan’s gentle approach is awe inspiring. It makes me want to come back for more. 

Reagan and “The Crocus Foundation” has restored my HOPE that I thought was lost for good. The HOPE in humanity when others are struggling. The HOPE with enhancing my body's movement post double mastectomy and reconstructive surgery when I was not sure of my limits. The HOPE that God has a plan for me post cancer and the HOPE of a better tomorrow living as a Cancer Survivor.

With a grateful heart,
