Reflecting on her experience as a daughter of Haitian immigrants, Mia went on to detail the qualities that she believed make America truly great: being a country that gives back, one that makes tough choices and one that is grounded in “gritty determination.”
“Couching this column as a ‘dying wish’ felt a little dramatic, even for a drama person like me,” Mia wrote. “We are not certain how long this season of my battle will be and I do want to share, and reshare, some things with the world that I passionately believe. I write all of this as my ‘living wish’ and hopefully ‘enduring wish’ for you.”
“My living wish and fervent prayer for you and for this nation is that the America I have known, is the America you fight to preserve,” she concluded, “and that each citizen, and every leader, will do their part to ensure that the America we know will be the America our grandchildren and great grandchildren will inherit.”
