I was lucky enough to meet my real inspiration for my platform, little Camryn. When I went to meet her for the first time, Cami was confined to her home because her immunities were too low to be around the public. I wanted to make sure I was as clean as possible, so I used hand sanitizer continuously beforehand. Her mother told her a princess was coming, so she made sure to be dressed up in her princess costume. Her big smile was contagious and made it impossible to notice the loss of her hair and the swelling of her face from medications. I took time to read to her and give her, her very own princess tiara. She put it on immediately! I tried hard to hold back my tears but my emotions overtook me as I read and talked to her and her mother about the reality of her illness. It shocked me that this little tiny body had such a huge devastating disease. Cami became my inspiration and I knew this was the platform for me. I want to continue to make a difference in her life and the lives of others with this disease.
