I am a 53 y/o widow, lost 100+lbs & recent breast cancer survivor. Life is amazing and I am happier than I have been in what seems forever!
We would like to thank you for supporting Marni Russo in this year's competition. Your support helps us contribute to the National Breast Cancer Foundation who provides early detection, education, and support services to those affected by breast cancer.
You are never too old to reinvent yourself! I am able to take all the wisdom I have learned, all the life experiences I have been dealt, both good and bad, and use them to become a better person. We are all works in progress, no matter what our age. I know it is ok to stumble, as long as I pick myself back up. I am loving the new me and living each day to its fullest.
How do you stay fabulous?I try and keep a positive attitude and smile on my face. Learning to love and find myself again, after being lost for so long. Doing my best to be the best version of myself. Taking some of my life's tragedies and using them to help others. I lost my husband to a rare cancer, liposarcoma, 6 years ago. I continue to be an advocate and mentor, helping others all over the world effected by the terrible disease. I do my best to make a difference in helping those along their journey.
What would you do with the $40,000?I would donate to some charitable organizations I support and volunteer for, replace savings I have used to support my late husband and now myself during battles with cancer and I would take a vacation someplace I have never been to ... perhaps Europe?
