"Monkey" Minute

I've never participated in Monday Minute before with Ian at The Daily Dose of Reality but want to show my support for Michelle and her family who are going through sunch a horiffic time right now.



Is she a cutie or what? My heart just breaks for her.

Today's questions are:

1-How old do you act?

Well sometimes 2, sometimes 16, very occasionally 32

2-As far back as you can remember, what did you wanna be when you grew up?

Well I really never had a specific profession in mind I just knew I wanted to help people.

3-If you were to write a book based on your life, what would it be titled?

Seriously I Do NOT write :) Never gonna happen. Let's see....My own little bumpy road. See told you I suck at writing!

4-What's something you do that's considered "childish" by most?

Bite my nails, smell my fingers, whine and complain, throw fits (yes I did say I was 32) Did I just admit that? and not the 32 part.

5-The last question isn't a question. Write a story of a time when you or someone you know overcame great adversity.

When I was 9 years old I was hit with a type A flu virus that attacked my brain instead of my stomach. Physically, I lost everything (except the ability to breathe of course) I was in the hospital and rehab hospital for almost 8 months and then a lot of outpatient rehab. My mother was single at the time and was absolutely incredible. I truly believe it was only by the grace of God that she was given the strength to do what she did; physically and mentally. It was a very very long and hard and I humbly say miraculous road to recovery. Emotionally the recovery is still going on but I can say that overall it has definately made me a better person and totally changed my life.
