A while back I blogged about Michael Phelps, and how his “extra stroke” won him the gold. I saw the “disgraced” olympian on TV the other night, along with the rest of the nation. While his publicist-written letter of “regret” was clearly “well-penned”, I hesitate to believe he TRULY regrets his “mistake”. In fact, I am

"ANGI" was a life and death difference for my little girl
This is my beautiful ten year old girl, Summer Lauryn. When she was only three years old, “ANGI” became the difference between life and death for her. Let me explain.
