A life of hope and inspiration

 Hi friends,

I have been wanting to share my story with the world in hopes that you will see, storms in life aren't permanent, and they will pass. Maybe my story from how I went from wreckage to hope will shine some light in your lives. Actually, I am in the middle of what has been a long 10 month storm. I want to share what I have learned, how to cope in the hard times, and my experiences through the last 20 years that has really shaped the strong woman I am today. I've made it through abuse, addiction, anorexia, a LOT of death, a LOT of loss, and 27 soon to be 28 surgeries and a LOT of crazy medical issues. Every time I get knocked down, I always get back up and thank God for the resilience and strength He's given me. 

Having said that, I have actually been meaning to do this for a long long time. I love my life despite what I have experienced and there's a lot to be said for that. I hope that as you join me on the journey of my life up to this point you will be empowered as you see how I have gone from wreckage to hope. It all begins tomorrow!!!!

 Hi Friends! I honestly didn't know if I was going to be able to post anything due to the uncertainty about what all was going to transpire today. I'm here, after a long day in the ER. I barely escaped the ER yesterday and I must say, it's unnerving and exhausting feeling like a ticking time bomb never knowing what each day will hold, if I'll have to go to the hospital, etc.!!! The Doctor I had and nurse were both phenomenal and gave me everything I needed, moving quickly to get my pain and nausea under control. I had blockage issues today with my catheter and urine was leaking around my Urethra. I could tell there was blockage and I was having some renal reflux issues. When that happens, the pain is a 9-10 on the pain scale they use from 1-10. When urine is trying to pass, it hurts really bad up my back, and my right kidney and ureter were a hot mess. Am okay now and home resting. Okay, onward!!! Going back first to January of this year another "storm" was br...

Never Settle and Stay True to Yourself

Being vulnerable is not easy, but in doing so, it helps you heal. As I share my story, I can see why it took me so long to get to the point where I was able to. There was far more rooted deep that still needed to be dealt with and obviously I've done my homework or I never would have started this journey. It's freeing when you get out of yourself because you begin to care a whole lot less what others think and helping others becomes bigger than insecurities, fear, doubt and all the things that normally hold us back. Life is short and if my story can touch lives and help others, its worth the risk. Everyone has opinions and we're all entitled to that, but you have to be able to emotionally disconnect and brush off any negative feedback that may come. Being vulnerable also brings healing. As I share my story with you in an effort to help others, I have been healing even more through this process.  Having been one who has settled in the past [ I think we all have ], I became d...
