About Me
I was a Comedic Hypnotist for 14years and dedicated my life showing others how to laugh and how good it is for the soul. I am a mother of 3 and now been blessed with a new grandson. I resided in the US for 11 years and recently came back to Canada as my care requirements became more challenging.
