Comedy Night

I am super excited about my upcoming Comedy Night introducing my new book The Crusaders of which I am a super hero along with six other amazing authors. I love life and I love to laugh. I wake up in the morning smiling and go to bed at night doing the same. I never really […]

My Son

Today, 24 years ago at 8 AM, my labor was induced since I was past my original due date. After having been through all I had been through in my life, why would my pregnancy be any less difficult. At 4 1/2 months, I had surgery and now, over 9 months, they fire up the […]

Childhood Cancer Awareness Month

As September comes close to an end, I ponder about the this past month, and I think of all the posts about Childhood Cancer Awareness. Everyone jumped on the band wagon and shared, posted, liked, commented, etc., and to say the least, it was quite touching to read all that I could read. We banned […]

I wish we could all face life that way, but unfortunately we all grow up and become responsible adults. For […]

A New Volunteer

Just received a call from a parent of a young boy I recently helped. I was able to get him an appointment at CHOP quickly since he was suffering with something and his parents were frantic. Of course, anything that happens with our children and their health makes us frantic, so when I can help, […]

Life is Too Short

Nobody likes to think about the end! Life cannot just end and then there is nothing. Or can it? For me, going through all that I endured (and still endure at times) is enough for me to believe that life is too short, and I cannot sweat the small stuff. I believe that we need […]
