Jewel at 33 is a Princess in her own right.
She's a fun-loving, demanding Diva who loves to
shop as much she loves to write. Jewel is the apple of
everyone's eye--be it her doting family, her doctor
for her never-ending bowel issues, her pushy book
editor and especially her frugal husband's soft spot.
So, what's Jewel 's weakness? Her pet dogs: Snowie
and Dolly. Particularly, naughty Snowie who is known
to pee wherever he fancies--including Dolly's face!



For Jewel, her physical disability doesn't dampen her
spirits. Rather, it enhances them. She gets to use an
unusual fashion accessory (Imagine: A hot pink elbow
crutch.) She gets out of doing housework. She gets
carried up-and-down stairs like a Princess a la command.
Jewel may be horribly messy, terrible with numbers
and a workaholic, but nobody can imagine life without
her. Not that she would let them, anyway! She has
a big mouth, remember?
