My will, my faith and my body have been challenged, but make no mistake, my heart is strong and my resolve to fight will never be broken.

You know later in life I was inspired to sing and that would've been Aretha, Chaka Khan, Mariah - the typical divas were the inspiration. I've always enjoyed all those singers.

My will, my faith and my body have been challenged, but make no mistake, my heart is strong and my resolve to fight will never be broken.

Once someone asked me three words that best describe me and I said 'Loud, Louder, and Loudest.'

I'm a fighter by nature and nothing will ever change that.

To make a difference is just... I think... the purpose of what life is.

I wear glasses, have a big scar, I sing loud, and I am blond. I'm sorry!
