I feel so fortunate and grateful to be a survivor of breast cancer. I see it as a gift.

Nature is the most beautiful thing we have. It's better than art because it's from the creator.

I believe love is what makes the world go round. No matter how old or young, love is why we are here. It is the very essence of one's being.

Being a breast cancer survivor, as I like to call myself - it will be twenty years next year - I did it to make it possible for women to do regular self breast examinations. It's really important - and, it makes common sense: you know your body better than the doctor does who only sees you once a year, you know?

My wish is that all all women age 20 and above perform monthly breast self-examinations.

As for highlights, of course "Grease" changed my life and I will always be grateful for that experience.

I do have high standards, but I don't expect anything from anyone that I don't expect from myself.
