resulted in a broken back in three places. For fi fteen years her frac-
tures went undetected during which time she learned how to live
with chronic pain. To date, her treatments have been varied, includ-
ing eleven back surgeries and an intrathecal drug infusion pump.
Her personal experiences with pain led her to numerous experiences
working throughout the country with pain organizations dedicated
to helping people with chronic pain from the patient’s perspective.
She also hosted a weekly international internet radio show (Pain
Tamers on Voice America, 2004-2006), and patient conferences

ence with keynote Speakers Jerry Lewis and Patch Adams), and
lecturing/teaching. In her leadership role, she has participated in
numerous activities that include: Medtronic, Inc.’s media training
with Jerry Lewis for the Tame the Pain campaign; task force member
to the Texas Medical Center Pain and Palliative Care Group; and
speaker at state press conferences addressing the preferred drug list
for Medicaid patients and legislation regarding Medicaid patients
and their ability to receive pain medication. She is a guest faculty
on an interdisciplinary pain course offered by the University of Texas
Health Science Center at Houston. She has also been featured in
