McMann has braved great personal tragedies - her brother was murdered in 1999 and her fiance was killed in a car accident in 2004, which she survived. They served to make her all the more compassionate, evidenced by the fact that she travelled to Sri Lanka to help victims of the 2004 tsunami rebuild their lives. In addition to fighting, McMann is the mother of an eight-year-old daughter.
