August 30, 2008 the unexpected happened. I got locked out of my apartment and went up to the roof, to see if I could go down the fire escape to get in. I remember looking over the edge and thinking, “No way- what am I? Spiderman? I turned to go and I don’t know if I slipped or what.But I fell six floors from the roof of my New York apartment building. How I survived is a miracle...
Happy Thursday!! I love when I see/find videos that really hit on matters that make you think. I saw this monologue the other day and I was immediately floored at how beautiful it was. This monologue was even talked about on Good morning America. I'd love to show you the whole monologue, however some of the language isn't exactly PG. So, here is the news story with the clean version. Enjoy, and have a great day!
Hey, hey, hey!! Yesterday I was in New Orleans to for Give Nola Day supporting the Brain Injury Association of Louisiana. "GiveNOLA Day is a 24-hour, online giving event
organized by the Greater New Orleans Foundation to ignite the giving
community in Southeast Louisiana. The goal is to inspire the community
to come together for 24 hours to contribute as many charitable dollars
as possible to support the work of local nonprofit organizations." It was a great day, and, drum roll, they raised a total of $8, 290 with over 98 donations! And those donations help the brain injury and spinal cord injury survivor community!
