The fact that I made it to 50.. When I found out I had cancer and that it was in 7 of my organs at the time and I had already had it for 4 years and people only live 5. I was already 46 at the time and separated and going to get divorced. I knew at that moment I was going to live my life to the fullest. Every day I have been told I wasn't gonna live long and each year my cancer has spread to a different organ and the Drs have thought I wasn't gonna make it and I have proved them wrong.
How do you stay fabulous?The best way I know how to stay fabulous is to be positive. I asked a lot how I'm so positive about what I have and my life. The best thing I can say is my faith. I believe that whatever is going to happen is going to happen no matter what. I am somebody who loves to get dressed and my motto is always dress as if you're going somewhere better. I love to be overdressed then underdressed.
What would you do with the $40,000?If I had $40,000 I would go on vacation a much needed vacation.I would go away with my sister and a few close friends to a nice Island somewhere where we could lie on the beach and relax. Get massages and go for dinner at night.Pay a few medical bills then I would put the rest in the bank for a rainy day.
