My Bama sister

As many know my sister, Lois Lane is a Breast Cancer survivor. Chemo, radiation and some strength I never knew existed. I am a heart survivor and my story is one I wear from the inside out. I met, last week, one of the most amazing people ever. April Dawson, Mrs. Alabama. We shared a lot amongst some spray tans and friendship. As we got naked in front of each other I saw what she had removed. Her laughed made me comfortable and her story made me realize I truly had no vision in that story. She was a breast cancer survivor and yes her platform is St Jude. She has a St Jude child also.

Every moment with her gave me levity and I found myself looking for the person who gave me a sense of new friendship.

I had a judge ask me last week, why are you more worthy than the next. I said, I'm not because we all have a story but would you want to listen? Because if YOU want to listen, you should be the next Mrs International. Its not your story as much as if you think you are better, I would never listen. If you want to listen to me , then you are outside of you. I am a heart and stroke survivor but I can't claim to walk that path. You are my hero April, my love, my sister and like Lois Lane! Always in my heart.

I can dress the part and be the part but when April showed me her breast all I saw was beautiful. These are the stories and she never told it.

Mrs Alabama 2010! 

To my Bama sister~ from my heart to yours ~ I love you
