Susan and Sharon keep the good times rolling with Part 2 of their conversation with singer, song-writer, actress, author and diabetes advocate Gloria Loring! Known for her Number One hit “Friends & Lovers”, Gloria is also the legendary co-composer and singer of the impossible to forget Facts of Life theme song!

THE CONVERSATION- “EXPECT A MIRACLE” -- How a mysterious card found in her dressing room led Gloria to finance the Days of Our Lives Celebrity Cookbook -- and raise over $1,000,000.00 for diabetes research!
- When her son Brennan was diagnosed with diabetes at age four, Gloria was told he would be lucky to make it to 25. He’s now 50 and doing great!
- BE BRAVE, LITTLE ONE: What it feels like to forget the first line of the song you’re singing at the Oscars!
