UNDER CONSTUCTION
I am a woman that lived a life full of ups and downs. I watched my mother become a person that was extremely unhappy with herself, I must say that I saw the same thing happening to me. About 6 years ago my baby (Bryanna) stuffer a life threaten illness (Cancer) at the age of 5 years old. I took that really hard and put on a lot of weight. One year later I got married. The year before Bryanna got sick I tried to have the surgery but I did not qualify for it. In 2005 my mother's insurance accepted mother request and she was getting ready to have the surgery. At that time I knew that I needed to do something so of course I replied. Low and behold my insurance accepted me as well. My mother and I was going to have our surgery together. Before we could get our dates my mother got sick with a blood clot, I was left to do this all by myself. In July of 2005 I went to Chicago to celebrate my 1st year Anniversary and I could not take it. Between the heat and my weight I just want to stay in the room and sleep and the sun set and then take a cab everywhere. At that time i knew I needed a change to happen soon. I received a call from my surgeon's office asking if I was ready and gave me my new birthday which was September 22, 2005. I knew then my lIife would no longer be what it once was. I was ready for the change and of course I had everyone trying to tell me what I was doing was wrong and how it could kill me and all those negative things that you really do not care to hear. I let all of that go in one ear and out the other because this was for me and not for them. I needed to make a change not for everyone else but for myself. I would look in the mirror and see myself traveling my mothers road and I did not want that for myself. I wanted to see Bryanna graduate college, get married and have children. It was time for a chance and I did it. The road was long and hard but one well worth every last painful moment. If I had to do it all over again I would say "YES" let do it again.
