Overcome

I am a dedicated wife, mother and Co Founder of Africa Family Rescue. I am a blend of justice, empathy and spit fire, and not necessarily in that order. I love telling stories. As a mother, I am deeply committed to all of my children but especially my 18-year-old daughter Hope who suffered brain damage in a car accident 2 years ago. Overcome your fear of what has or will happen and live well in the present.
