A True Inspiration

 
The honors of the first person in my series- A True Inspiration goes to...

 Danielle Dugan
(who happens to also be my sister)

Over the past year, Danielle has chosen a path in life that maybe wasn't the necessarily "popular" choice among some, which included the choice to raise her son as what would be considered to be a single mother. In the midst of that, she also helped someone run for political office who she whole-heartedly believed in and was confronted with the often nasty side of politics and the behavior of many during election time (which is definitely NOT pretty). In the midst of all of that, she has decided that her health is of importance and has since lost 80lbs and continues to go to the gym throughout the week, taking time for herself and her well-being, which has not always been a priority in her life.

When asked, she said that her goals include becoming even healthier and losing more weight while continuing to be a mother who provides for her son and continues to show him that he is number one in her life.

Danielle, you are truly an inspiration!
