My politics are tacos, guns, and liberty. Not a real libertarian. Tidbits of my autobiography are shared here.

I’m not a Democrat. I’m not a Republican. I’m not even a real Libertarian. I just want to be left alone. I want my constitutional rights left alone. I don’t want to pay taxes that go to waste. I want the means to defend my family and myself. I want to live in a country with

I died during childbirth. The reason I’m alive today is because a resident defied orders and continued the efforts to revive me…and I was brought back. Everyone else had given up. 28 years later he was present at my daughter’s birth.

A cop pulled me over after he saw me signing to my kid at the gas station, and he was confused why a deaf person was driving! He even called for back up though I had a valid driver’s license and insurance that clearly prove I am a licensed driver. He refused to write on paper to

My husband left us when I was in the hospital fighting cancer. “This isn’t what I signed up for,” were his words. The kids heard him say that he wouldn’t raise them if I died. I thought when he left that I wouldn’t recover from it. I totally did. My life is much better now.

Dad gave me a sealed envelope and said that he trusted me with it. A few times through the years, he would check to see if I still had it. This went on for two decades. It was quirky and weird, but it was our thing. I opened it after he died. It was a blank piece of paper.

My (ex) husband had an affair with my (former) best friend while I was fighting for my life with cancer, and their affair carried on while I was getting chemo- alone. He left before I found out…but here’s the kicker. She and I still work together. It’s been hard the last 8

It’s been ten years since my husband walked out because my cancer “wasn’t what he signed up for.” While fighting for my life with two little girls, I lost our home, our belongings, and discovered he was having an affair with my best friend. Rock bottom. Medical bills, no paid

Black Rifle Coffee is a SCAM. It’s not pro-gun. It’s not pro-vet. It’s not pro-American.

A true story. Parent: "We don't use sign language because he want him to learn how to use his new ears (cochlear implants) so he can learn how to enjoy music like we do. So he can talk like us." Me: "We're sitting in a hospital. I was called here to help interpret for your

The man who nearly sexually assaulted me when I was five is tweeting that he is upset with Elon Musk’s “dangerous” tweets. I’m not able to speak up about who he is, but the fact that he is nervous about being exposed gives me a glimmer of hope that I have never had before.

"Get implants!" That's what a lot of people "advise" me to do when they learn that I'm deaf. Listen, breast implants will not help me hear.
