Maya Angelou - An inspiration, artist and activist
Maya Angelou remains ever present. She represents beauty and pain, pleasure and fight, freedom and suffering. No heart that beats could fail to beat along to the rhythms set by her artistry.

When Amy’s daughter Grace was just 2 years old, she battled high-risk pre-B acute lymphoblastic leukemia, a diagnosis that most toddlers couldn’t repeat out loud, let alone understand. Dr. An...
