Posted 11:52am May 9th, 2008Honestly, I never watched Wendy on TV, I don't watch the news because all they do is try to scare you. But I did have a health scare that got me to start riding a bicycle. I'm not like Wendy, but I am inspired by her. She's not an "Oh, isn't the world wonderful" type. She's real, she's aggressive and is out to LIVE her life. That's what I respect. That's what I admire. That's what I want to be. Thanks for doing so many great REAL LIFE stories on real people. Growing Bolder KICKS it.

Posted 1:49pm May 8th, 2008I've been watching Wendy on tv ever since she started here in Orlando. I was shocked to hear about her cancer but very happy for her recovery. Now that she's leaving our area, I will miss her very much. There will never be another Wendy! Good luck to her!
