In 2016 I had a stroke that took out the right side of my body, everything from my nose to my toes.

 

The doctors told me I would never play the piano again and to prepare myself for a new normal. However, my OTHER doctor, GOD, had different plans.

 

When I got home from the hospital I sat down at my keyboard. My left hand could play fine but I couldn't lift my right arm up to even play and I started to bawl.

 

Then I got angry. I flipped the keyboard across the room, said a few curse words and yelled out in anger, "They're right. I'll never be able to play again!!!"​​​​​​​​​​

​

That's when I heard in my heart God telling me, "Yes you will, and I will help you!"

​

Within a year I was not only back to about 90 percent normal, I was able to play the piano...once again...as promised.​​​

​

Today, I am preparing to take the stage with THE DARE TO DREAM SHOW.​
