Outside of a personal family member, is there anyone that you look up to more than anyone else and is considered by you to be an inspiration?
I don’t want this sound sad, but this is MY answer… Any child that is going through Cancer or any other horrible illness. Children, usually have no idea the awful things they are or will be facing, yet they are so trusting and innocent and smile and are so courageous to try anything they have to. I truly am inspired by them… and their parents and the medical staff that have to go through that with them. If you ever are feeling sorry for yourself… go visit a children’s hospital.
Where would you like to be in your life in the next ten years?
Happy, Healthy and traveling…..
What is one thing that most people do not know about you?
