Sabrina's Pro Stem Cell Research Event


Sabrina Cohen was paralyzed in a drag racing accident thirteen years ago. The stem cell research moratorium imposed by George Bush in 2001 affects her personally, as she hopes for a cure for herself and others with similar injuries and many others where stem cell research would possibly bring a cure closer.
Sabrina has designed a line of T-Shirts with bold messages like "Wanna check out my ass?" which is rather difficult for wheelchair bound people or "I´m sick of pricks" (you interpret it anyway you want), which were showcased at this event, where finally I saw the Press room (and the street in front of it) full of people. Nice.
Sabrina (go to her web page by clicking here) was honored by the City of Miami Beach, which declared October 19th 2005 Sabrina Cohen day, honoring her for using creativity and wit to gain attention for many worthy causes.

You go, girl!
