But she hasn’t always practiced what she teaches.In her book,she describes that awful day,almost 40 years ago,when she received two pieces of lifechanging news.First,she had lost the baby she was carrying,and second,tests showed that she had diabetes.In a childlike act,she left the hospital and treated herself to a box of doughnuts (甜甜圈).Years would pass before she realized she had to grow up again—and take control of her diabetes,not let it control her.Only then did she kick her threepackaday cigarette habit,overcome her addiction to alcohol,and begin to follow a balanced diet.
Although her disease has affected her eyesight and forced her to the sidelines of the dance floor,she refuses to fall into selfpity.”Everybody on earth can ask,‘why me?’ about something or other,” she insists.”It doesn’t do any good.No one is immune (免疫的) to heartache,pain,and disappointments.Sometimes we can make things better by helping others.I’ve come to realize the importance of that as I’ve grown up this second time.I want to speak out and be as helpful as I can be.”
