"Step into my shoes and walk the life I'm living, and if you get as far as I am, just maybe you will see how STRONG I really am." Words cannot accurately describe the strength that this Marine Corps Veteran possesses, and I don't think we could truly understand it unless we were, in fact, walking in her shoes.
