Free Hugs in Hollywood
When I found out that I was diagnosed with cervical cancer, I decided I needed to start doing positive things to fill my heart up with love to help heal my body. I had seen Juan Mann’s FREE HUGS movement and wanted in! I grabbed my camera and a couple of friends and we hit the streets of Hollywood. Who knew that 2 hours on a Sunday could change so many people’s lives? This video was featured on the home page of Yahoo.com and I was flooded with phone calls and emails from emotional people all over the world. Getting that kind of worldwide feedback from something I put into the world was very validating and healing for me. So if you’re reading this… THANK YOU for your love and support! I am happy to report I am cancer-free! Yeehoo!!

Dear Lisa,

This video got me through the worst part of Chemotherapy. I still remember the night I found it about 2 am. I cried for awhile. Now when I view it, i get misty eyed but it leaves a feeling of warmth and caring.
THANK YOU! I felt each hug. In a world full of people divided a simple hug can give and mean so much. Human contact is becoming a lost art. God Bless.
