But finally one day, Shepherd said her sister came to her in a dream. “She said, ‘get up and do what I told you to do,'” proclaims Ernestine.
She did that show and I came in first place in her age category. And nearly a month later, Guinness Book Of World Records came calling, literally. And ever since she’s been in the history books.
“I have no medicine for panic attacks,” admits Shepherd. No medicine for high blood pressure. No medicine for anything. Thank God for my health and thank God for my sister.”
Inspired by Sylvester Stallone she is a die-hard “Rocky” fan, and fan of Michelle Obama . Sylvester Stallone “ is my man, and I would love to meet him one day” she said. She is also looking for an excuse to meet First Lady Michelle Obama and help her with her work on controlling obesity, who she calls “so beautiful, inside and out”. She feels they are on the same mission and should combine their work.
