I've been a Hero: 9 times
I've had: 5 wishes granted
I am a physically challenged mother of two sons. One is a mentally
challenged adult with neurological and cardiological
impairments, the other is a special needs young adult battling with
some issues related to genetic Fragile X syndrome and early onset
arthritis but trying hard to spread his wings in spite of his
challenges. My life partner is a healthy woman who works in our
local hometown gas station as a cashier. She is a US Navy Veteran
and served during 911. She chose not to renew her military contract
so we could live freely and openly as a family.
We are dedicated to the love and care of disabled pets and run a
very small private sanctuary for special needs cats and dogs. We
get help from an annual Crippled Critter Benefit event from our
local 501c4 Organization "Dixie Thunder of Aiken County" where I
hold the position of Member and Internet Coordinator.

Dixie Thunder has also built my Wheelchair ramp so now I am able to
move between my room, wheelchair friendly office building and
kennel with ease.

Our family participates in local and online charity. We regularly
attend charity benefit events with Dixie Thunder. Our favorite
events are the Back to School supply and Holiday gift benefits for
the Helping Hands Shelter for Abused and Neglected Children.
We are also very strong believers in peer to peer giving and
sharing and have earned a good local and online reputation for
being helpful to those in need.
