I WANT TO KNOW

WHAT THE CHILDREN TOLD ME

I was lying there in the neuro ICU listening to all the beeps and whooshes...  

Right after aneurysm surgery, I was making deals with God.  "If you take me now, thank you for my amazing life. And if I live, please make my purpose clear." That's when I heard the children's voices. Clear and loud. They were all around my hospital bed saying...

For a decade I interacted with thousands of sick children as "Jumpin' Jackie", a DJ on Radio Lollipop at Texas Children's Hospital. These kids had a profound impact on me. They demonstrated grace and clarity in the face of pain, fear and uncertainty. They are my heroes.
The children led me to create:
