2009 Royal Palm Literary Award Winner: My First State Supreme Court Argument

 

As for that first case…the decision eventually came down months later in our favor, 7-0. I like to say that the good guys won.   But win or lose, every time I look at that picture from the snowy woods…I remember how far I’ve traveled.

I am proud to call this amazing woman a very dear friend. She is as wonderful and inspiring as she sounds. While Mary went through law school, I went through nursing school. We sipped a great deal of coffee while commiserating about our stressful lives as students, mothers and wives. I am very proud of all she has achieved professionally while still being one of the best mothers I know. You should all read her book, it is great! Thank you More for recognizing another inspiring woman.

What an inspiring story! It gives me courage to march ahead with my own late-in-life career change. I only hope I muster the moxie to pull it off with as much chutzpah as you have!
