You have waited long enough to see my response to the Interview from The Queen herself. Here it is Up Close and Personal, Always Victoria live from the Bend in the River, Georgia.
The Queen: Victoria, Knowing you suffer from a devastating disease called Multiple Sclerosis I must ask you if you could be a plant that cured every disease known to man, what would your name be?
Victoria: Thank you Queen, I thought long and hard over this question and came up with two names….and they were simply Life and Hope. The reasons being you would give everyone life for you would have cured the disease. However since you asked for only one name I chose Hope because part of the definition is in a theological virtue defined as the desire and search for a future good, difficult but not impossible to attain with God’s help. There would be no way this would come about without God’s help and the other reason I chose Hope is for Bob Hope and the fact he spent so many years traveling extensively to entertain U.S. troops overseas.
The Queen: Thank You Victoria and now if you could make a new fruit, what would it taste like, what color would it be, texture? describe it fully..
Victoria: This would most likely be just for my husband Carl for I can not imagine anyone else liking this. He loves to eat banana and corn chips together so I would develop him a fruit from these two ingredients. It would be white, soft but crunchy with just a hint of salt, It would be elongated and inside a thick yellow skin called bancor.
The Queen: That I think will not be in much demand but moving right along here. If you were a flea what animal would be your preferred host?
Victoria: I believe I would want to live on a koala bear. I know you are thinking just why is that….they are cute as can be, live in Australia, a place I have always wanted to visit, and when not being cute they can be mean as hell just like I can…remember I am Sweet N Sassy.
The Queen: Oh Yes, you do let us see both sides from time to time but not very often. You should come out and play more. It is getting later than I expected so we need to move along here now. If you could change one thing about the world today what would it be and why would you change it?
Victoria: Oh Thank You for asking me this question now I can rant just a minute. If people just did not have prejudged ideas about people or things and gave themselves the time to know the person or to research the issue for themselves before making a determination or decision the world would be a much better place to live. So if I could change one thing that is what I would do is require everyone to think for themselves and make a decision or response only after knowing the person or the issue fully and for themselves not through or by someone else. For I believe that would take away a lot of the hurt, anger, and who knows maybe even war we have today.
The Queen: Well thank you Victoria now we need to get this finished so shall we see what else we have here I think we will all enjoy this question and your response to it so now. You spoke of choices, what is one choice that you would remake if you were given the chance?
Victoria: Many times I have said I would change nothing in my life but the only thing I would have changed is the ability to have known there would have been a treatment for Multiple Sclerosis coming out that would have helped slow the progression of the disease down while I was young enough to have had children for I would have. I know I would have been a wonderful mother and if I had my own child who was now a teenager I would not feel guilty for I could have and would have been a very good mother doing all the things a mother should do with her child. Now it is too late and the disease is progressing.
The Queen: Thank You Victoria for allowing me to Interview you and to share this with your readers.
Victoria: Thank You Queen for your time and for the great questions here and now I would like to share with others a few rules in case they are interested in knowing more about what has taken place here. Of course I always change a few things. This was just to be plan questions and answers but I turned it into an interview instead just to make it a little more enjoyable ( I hope) Now for the rules…..
1) Leave me a comment saying interview me please.
2) I will respond by asking you five questions. ( not the same as you see here.)
3) You will update your blog/site with the interview questions.
4) You will include this explanation and offer to interview someone else in the same post.
5) When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.

I loved this! You know Vickie, these things are wonderful for getting to really “know” the person at the other end of the blog, so to speak. I did not know you have MS, and another beautiful blogging friend of mine has it too. You are added to my list of prayers for health, my friend.
Yes I think it would be nice for my readers to get to know a little more about me, a different side of me perhaps…so I ask for your interview. Thank you. Oh, and regarding your last comment on my blog, I have emailed the dear man and told him how you and I are pouting now! *winks* Have a spectacular day Vickie!

Good, I’ve been waiting!
Really great answers, you never cease to amaze me…
I like the idea of your fruit though, hmm, sweet yet salty, soft yet crunchy. Interesting. Now does Carl slice the bananas and put on top of the chips?
I’d have you ask me questions too, but The Queen got me last week. Lots of fun!
Hope you’re enjoying your weekend! *HUGS & LOVE*

Your responses stir me up. I feel you have come out on the other side intact and whole again. I love you. And I receive all you give to me. Sisters, forever.

Loved the answers. You have so much to reveal.

I echo everyone else - I loved your answers. Fire away.

Victoria, great to see your strength with the MS. Didn’t realize we’re in similar boats. I have a relentless progressive disease too, since 94. Totally housebound.
With me they don’t even know what it is. At Johns Hopkins I was told “it might be something we’ve never seen before.”
July 25th, 2005 at 3:43 pm
The answers are up!!! I had so many to do I put them all in one post in the order in which they where received. So yours is at the bottom.(((((hugs)))):bananadance:
