I too had a dream and a goal very early in my life. At the age of ten, I decided to become a chiropractor ... it would be many years later that the dream became a reality. If you want something bad enough, you won't quit until you get it. This describes Jackie completely. She has learned to persevere and takes very good care of herself. Her book will inspire you because she has put her heart and soul into these pages. - Dr Michele Munnich
You cannot help but be reminded of your dreams when you read this book. You'll question why you put your passion aside ... just maybe you can re-engage, take the first step towards your own version of a "Boston Marathon" aspiration. I've seen Jackie's enthusiasm for running and for life--she brings that as a fellow member of the Space Coast Parrotheads. It's a lot of fun and friendship, but Jackie exemplifies our club's mission to "leave this world a little better than we found it." In so many ways, Jackie and her husband, Roy, serve the community and fulfill this mission ... ! think this book will touch people's lives in a positive and meaningful way, too- Cathy Furtado
