Another sepsis victim--I met one--Carol Roberts--who had both hands and legs amputated.

She was playing competitive tennis one day, and the next was in a coma.

She described how she was so scared when being moved from one bed to the next when she came to, without arms and legs.

I wanted her to come to Story Expo in LA with me to pitch movie makers like Participant Media (now dissolved) which made Malala and Lincoln.

She decided not to--she said writing her cookbook was too much for her.

For you to know, your life story is only worth $5000.

Someone can buy it from you for that amount of money.

Therefore guard your story, be your story, continue to live your own story.
