My mother and I are both cancer survivors, although it did take my dad, but I've found that we have at least advanced to the point where it's no longer an automatic death sentence.

I would love to see advances in the treatment of spinal cord injuries. Realistically, we can do no more for them than we ever could.

MC, my daughter had several surgeries when she was younger, and they were all done at Schneider Children's Hospital in Long Island. There's nothing in this world more humbling than seeing an entire building filled with sick children.
