So when I was in DC a couple of weeks ago, i sauntered into the Library of Congress…soaking wet carrying my shoes!
security stopped me asking what my purpose was, and i started in on my story…security had mercy on me and we started to chat (go figure)!I pulled out a copy of Carry Me, and proceeded to tell him the condensedversion of Carson’s story!…He intently listened and told me his little sister died of a brain tumor then guided me to the head librarian who took personal interest as well…and well…
the rest is history!!
