Heroes:

Mr. Buttercup 1965---a gentleman and life partner who has shown me nothing but unconditional love for the past 12 years and counting; people who've lived with diabetes for 30+ years; nursing and law pioneers; people overcoming adversity in general; people unselfishly helping others without expecting to be rewarded in return; my ancestors---Choctaws, Seminoles, Creeks, Irish, and Spanish
