To finally get that call from the doctor that you're pregnant and you're having a baby.... It was just another world.

Chicago is incredibly gracious. People here have so much pride.

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 was probably a B student in high school, but it wasn't until I got to college that I said, 'Oh! This is what it's all about.' And then I became an A student. I studied journalism in college and that's what really kicked it into high gear for me.

This face. What is it like to wake up to this face?
