I'm a darned good listener.

I love the ocean, but I'm just not one to lie on the beach.

I've never experienced chronic pain myself, but I have known many people over the years who have.

It will kill four times as many Americans as AIDS will over the next decade. I feel that what ever kind of disability God has given me, as an entertainer and as a public figure, it is so I can be a representative for others.

It's so important for those living with chronic pain to establish good communication with both their healthcare professionals and caregivers. Clear communication about pain is vital to receiving proper diagnosis and effective treatment.

I have faith, I believe in God and I've gotten through all the problems I had because of those three things: my faith, my hope and my belief in an eternal God.

I don't think we spend enough time in reflection and introspection. We don't know who we are as individuals in this culture any more.
