Some people look at Superman, Batman, or Ironman for saving the world. These heroes are not real. Today, I have a few people that I could put as who are true heroes, but I want to focus on one in particular. This person has given of herself to so many others. She has turned her own bad situation into a learning experience for others. She has taken the battle she had to find information and resource for her to create "A Gift of Awareness". It is a non-profit that offers information to people with cancer. This woman is Sara Carstensen. She is now moving on to another battle. She is taking on the Florida government for the chance to make medical marijuana legal. She was recently featured in an article speaking out on this issue, click here to read the article. She found that with her treatments, it was the only way that she was willing to eat anything or to hold down what she did eat. No one should have to suffer or risk jail time to have something that works, and she has proven herself to be a real life hero
