Jenn Drummond is thankful she's even alive today.
The mom of seven suffered a car accident years back that, according to her, the paremedics "didn't have one scenario where I lived, so you sit there and you think, I should've been dead and I'm not, so why am I here? What is my purpose?"
Now, thanks in part to her near-death experience, Drummond has a new purpose in traveling around the world and climbing some of the highest mountains on each continent.
In fact, she wants to climb the second highest mountain on each continent, which Drummond says are even harder than the first!
She told ABC 7, "You have Kilimanjaro, probably 14,000 people a year summit that mountain. Mt. Kenya is your second highest point. On an average year, 13 people get to the top."
And Drummond marks her accident with completely changing her outlook on life.
"Let's just have fun and embrace who we are and spend time doing that," she says, "because we don't get to choose when we leave, but we sure do get to choose how we show up every day."
