Born in Tennessee and reared in Florida.I have walked this earth for almost 1/2 century now. Learning so much along the way but yet still so much more to learn. I've been told that I see and say things differently but that's okay, I like being different. Life has never been easy with many trials and tribulations. One can either grow strong from the experiences or just collapse into utter despair. I love helping people, meeting people, and learning about them. I truly love the individualness of each person. I'm quirky, happy, sassy and disabled. Though my book was published around 2004, my stroke and thyroid cancer kept me and my body from doing any marketing. Not being able to walk or sit up for periods of time kept me from book store signings and media reviews such as radio and television. It has taken me 5 years to get up to taking 13 steps without having extreme unbearable levels of pain throughout my body. Now that I am able to take those 13 steps and to sit up for longer periods of time, I hope to catch up on all that I've missed and could not do. My book talks about some of these trials and tribulations and how I've learned to live life with no regrets so that I know I've done my best, by me and others At the End of the Day. Much love, peace and blessings to each and every one of you.
