When I worked at Mercy I worked everywhere from the Emergency Room to Surgery, all the intensive care units and floor therapy. But my favorite work has always been working with people who have Asthma, Emphysema, chronich bronchitis and people who need lung transplants and people after they have had a lung transplant. I have been at UC Davis Medical Center on Stockton Blvd. I run the pulmonary rehab program.

Jan 2010. For the last six years there is a competition for lung patients it is called the Lung Games, where patients from Northern CA compete against each other. Our hospital won Gold and Silver medals this year. As you can tell I really do love my job. I have been married for the last 15 years, but we have been together for the last 20 years. We enjoy water sports. We have a small houseboat that we really enjoy. My husband will retire from the railroad in 2010 after 41 years. I will retire in 4 years. We plan to buy a motorhome and travel around the United States. We both enjoy car racing and many sports and we plan to attend as many events in different states that we can. We host a daytona 500 party every Feb with our racing friends and we all have a good time. We enjoy the great neices and nephews and they come with us to the races and houseboat every year.
