I'm not just a model who plays volleyball, or a volleyball player who supports herself modeling. I'm a female athlete personality.

I never had only one job. I was either playing ball or writing or doing TV or modeling.

Even if I'm gone all day, breakfast is the one meal I always cook for my kids. I make French toast, oatmeal, or an egg burrito.

My three best friends get me through everything: I need cute jeans, my kids are driving me crazy, I'm throwing a party, whatever. They keep me dialed in.

Finally, the ecological health of the Mississippi River and its economic importance to the many people that make their living or seek their recreation is based on a healthy river system.

The doctor told me, 'You have breast cancer.' I heard the cancer part first - it was only later that I heard the breast part. I couldn't believe it.

My life in Brooklyn was in constant danger because of my bad health.

I hope I can make more miracles, more dreams come true.
