A rumor that followed me forever was that my family was in the mafia. For years I had to live with it. They'd call me the mafia princess, so I rolled with it for the rest of high school. People even joke about it today.

If you know me, you know that nothing embarrasses me. Anything could happen to me on live television, and I sincerely don't care.

I wasn't prepared to get a mammogram until I was 40 years old, like I'd been told. I never in my wildest dreams expected anything to be wrong.

I look in the mirror and it's hard for me. I am really thin. I want to look fit and beautiful and sexy, and I can't.

I never thought my marriage could be stronger, or I could be closer to Bill. We prayed on our own, but now we prayed together and you'll never know how much that means until you do it.

Through my attempt to get pregnant through IVF, we sadly found out that I have early stages of breast cancer. It's been a shock.

You can never take your reputation back. There really is nothing as powerful as a good reputation.
