  • I had a near death experience when I was in hospital due to a case of amoebiasis (I have the worst case so much so that doctors warned me that it will trigger my body again if I'm not being careful). I was10 years old at that time.

    This is my second life now.

    At 16 I was transplanted from the USA to a small Micronesian island called Saipan. All the amenities I took for granted (clean running water, consistent electricity, sidewalks, etc) weren't there. Probably one of the most defining moments in my life because it was there that I actually learned about how fortunate I was and that at that time (in the USA) I was wasting my education (started cutting school) and talent. It taught me how to take every opportunity and make the most of it.

  • I slept through a mortar attack while deployed to Iraq. It flew right over me and landed about 1/4 of a mile away! Didn't know it happened until someone banged on my door looking for me, to get accountability. And I can quack like a duck!!

    I don't have a very interesting life.. eventful yes..

    Something different that I do though is foster for the animal shelter.. usually sick kittens. The first time I fostered, it was a litter of 5 really sick kittens, it was 6 months of giving them twice-a-day needles, tablets, and syringed antibiotics, ended up keeping the sickest one :) The next time I fostered another little sick one called Milo who needed the same treatment, he died soon after :( and the most recent was a deaf kitten called Daisy who meowed like chewbacca, all day... all night.......
    I haven't fostered in a few months as I'm just adjusting to some changes in my life but I'm looking forward to getting back into it soon :) x

    During one of the many medical procedures as a kid, due to a heart problem, I had an out if body experience. After the procedure, in which I was anesthetized, I could tell the doctors everything that happened in the room,even conversations. I was 7, and remember looking down on myself laying on the gurney. Could even tell them the song playing on the radio. Still remember what it was like to look down upon oneself.

    I got to babysit for the director of the movie "Let's Get Harry" which had Gary Busey, Glenn Frey. It was filmed, at least in part, in Aurora, IL where I lived at the time.

    This past January, I was driving on a very long bridge in Tampa, FL. There was a tractor trailer in front of me that had a steel "Oversize Load" sign on it. The sign broke off and was coming right towards my head. I couldn't switch lanes in time wihtout crashing. At the last minute, the sign bounced and went to the right. It still hit my car and caused $3000 worth of damage but at least it didn't hit the driver's side. The tow truck driver and the policeman on scene were all surprised that I wasn't killed.

    My 65 Mustang was used in the filming of "Conspiracy?", a show on the History Channel that details the events surrounding the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr.
    In the 1980's I spent a few days in Los Angeles with Maxine Andrews of the Andrews Sisters as part of an event I planned for our company. The event was designed for senior citizens to relive their 'stardust memories' and one evening we replicated an old USO style show.

    Speaking of tattoos..................

    I'm such a huge fan of Poison that I have their logo tattooed on one arm, and a portrait of Bobby Dall on my other arm.

    I'm allergic to liquor (not joking)
  • I've had one near death experience whereby I almost drowned when I was 11. My mum saved me, as did a man who appeared out of no where and disappeared as quick as he arrived. Never got to thank him for saving my life.

    Ironically, while on holiday in the same place 5 years after that incident, I guess I narrowly avoided dying once again. We [me, my mum and step dad] were due to stay on holiday until June 2nd, but decided very spur of the moment on the 1st to go home. Had we stayed until the 2nd as planned, we would have been caught up in a massacre and shot dead.
