Soul Surfer

Leaving the hospital after her surgery and days of recovery, she knew her life would never be the same. They had to walk out the back entrance because of the mob of TV people who were waiting to shove microphones in her face and get every detail out of her. Nowadays everywhere she goes she hears people calling her name and asking for autographs. She does not like being in the spotlight and doesn't particularly enjoy all the attention.

Many TV shows and news channels started asking her to come on their shows and tell her story. At first she was hesitant and didnt know if she should do it. Her family left the decision up to her. She decided that if she could talk about her faith and share how Christ has helped her with others than going on these shows would be worth it. The first TV show she was on was 20/20 and then after that she started going on them like crazy. Next was Inside Edition, Life Magazine, Sports Illustrated, The Early Show, Good Morning America, The Today Show, and CNN Live. She got asked pretty much the same questions by everyone so she got good at telling her story.
