When the star of a tv show is introduced to the live studio audience, everybody goes crazy. It's expected. You're happy and excited to see a favorite performer come out on stage. When Lisa Jarmon was sitting in the audience of "The Ellen Show" eight years ago she did more than go crazy. Her energy was so great that the star herself noticed and had Lisa come down on stage.
If you have never watched Ellen DeGeneres on her daily talk show, let me tell you it is a regular feature to highlight regular folks and to give them incredible gifts. Lisa Jarmon was given an incredible gift. That first show though was just the beginning. In the years that followed, Lisa Jarmon appeared a number of times and received some hefty checks, a brand new car, and custom-built house. "When Ellen gives you something, she gives you life-changing somethings," said Lisa. How true that is!
I adore Ellen DeGeneres. She brings so much kindness and joy to our world. I agree with her about Lisa too. It was such a happy time seeing her positive perspective. We just heard some very sad news though. Lisa Jarmon has lost her battle with breast cancer. I'm going to look for some videos of her appearances. Thank you Ellen for all you continue to do, and thanks for bringing Lisa Jarmon our way. The inspiring enthusiasm she had was such a great tonic for us all.
