I share this because cancer is never a “one and done experience” for those who have lived it. It is filled with up’s, down’s, and middle’s. That is what “awareness” is. And THAT is battle I will never stop waging.
This morning I sat down with @WOODTV in Grand Rapids to discuss the next legal steps in the Patrick Lyoya case.
Here are my two cents on this difficult and sad situation.

I’m a huge Will Smith fan. I have been since the Fresh Prince days.
But what happened last night was absolutely unacceptable. While Chris Rock’s joke was in poor taste, it is not a defense to Smith’s actions.
Lawyers who handle Assault and Battery cases, as I do, will tell you that someone making a joke about your spouse does not justify a slap, punch, or any physical contact for that matter.
I am excited to announce that I will be part of @LeadershipOak’s Breakfast of Champions this year!
I am also excited to announce that I am still considered young.
Registration for the event is now open!
