gingersnaplibrarian asked: I just wanted to thank you. You are inspiring with your unapologetic and unashamed self. You have every reason to complain and yet you don't post about how everyone should pity you. You also like Star Wars and pretty underthings, which are a huge pluses in my book. I was taught my fair, freckled, big boobed, curvy self should be hidden and I should be ashamed of it. I've since learned I'm beautiful and cherished just as I am. It's lovely to find others who think the same. Thank you!

Messages like these are part of why I love what I do and make life better. Thank you.

ptitemort asked: Hi Mandy! I'm a huge fan, I didn't know you had a tumblr but I've stumbled upon(terrible pun) this an hour ago and I wanted to ask you a few questions, if you're nice enough to answer: What would you be doing if you weren't pretty enough for modelling?(if you looked like a member of the British royal family) What would your life look like? How difficult is it to maintain your professional life with your current illness? I suffer from a genetic illness as well and I wish you all the best :)

If I looked like a member of the British Royal family hmm…haha. I’d probably have kept doing what I was doing before I started modeling. I worked with special needs kids in foster homes. I was gonna go to art school. I had been accepted. Or I would have studied neurobiology and maybe gone to med school afterwards and then worked in pediatric neurology. As for the difficulty I try not to think of it like that at all. Of course working takes much muchto more planning ahead now that my condition has progressed and I need to maintain an attitude that is flexible with having to cancel shoots (I always tell the people I am working with to expect me being ill and have backup models/performers/shoot dates). But it can be disappointing and frustrating to miss out doing what I very much want to do. It’s a one day at a time kind of thing.
