Migrants seeking asylum should always be treated as a humanitarian crisis, but this evening we're facing a horrific human tragedy.
More than 40 hopeful lives were lost. I urge you to think compassionately, pray for the deceased, the ailing, and their families at this moment.

One month ago today my life changed when I was struck by a vehicle as I was in a crosswalk. I am so grateful for the love, prayers, & support. I’m learning to walk again. Blessed to have the unconditional love of my Mother. She prayed with me yesterday.

I learn a lot driving my kid to school in morning from what music is popping to what characters are living what to what Patrick Mahomes is doing in off-season to get back to Super Bowl but I love learning about power of forgiveness. In that vulnerability is real strength. Animo.
