ALL MY CHILDREN: After saving Adam's life, David cut a deal to hide in the mansion, in return for becoming Adam's personal doctor, so the world won't find out how sick Adam is. Pushed to the edge by her fear that Adam and Brooke are involved, Annie told JR that she was his bone marrow donor. Tad had Damon's DNA tested and learned that Damon is his son. Meanwhile, Liza felt increasingly distanced from Tad. Damon tried to hide his hurt when Tad told him that his parents were away in Europe, but stole a bottle of pills at the hospital. Frankie successfully operated under the influence of pills, but afterward, threw them in the trash. Greenlee and Erica launched a competition in which the winner will get total control of Fusion. Coming: Damon's actions land him in trouble. (Updated: 03/12/10 2:24 PM )

After high school I served in the U.S. Army as a medic in Desert Storm and Somalia, where I also served as an assistant to the battalion surgeon. I settled in Buffalo in 1995, when I started working for Kevin Cunningham at KCs Fitness. In 2001 I had the opportunity to serve as the athletic director of The Buffalo Club for five years, helping to reconstruct the fitness center there. In 2006 I opened my own personal training studio, The Soap Box, which I currently operate on Franklin. I'm a certified black belt in Aikido, instructor qualified in Tai-Chi, and have been a certified personal trainer through the American Council of Exercise for most of my career.
