She is named for Candy Crowley, 63, CNN anchor and chief political correspondent
who wrote a letter to her 25 year old self.
"Dear Candy,
Be brave.
Most times the answer to "What's the worst that can happen?"
is "Nothing you can't handle."
There will be aggravating, sleep-deprived, hurried days
dealing with the nonsensical and the stupid
—and you should find a way to enjoy them.
You're not going to get those days back."
