I consider myself to be a strong woman. I have overcome so much but I feel that it has made me a wiser person. In 2004 I was diagnosed with kidney disease and it changed my life forever. In 2008 I had a kidney transplant that was donated by my younger cousin. This was the hardest time of my life because I had complications and as a result I almost died. I was in the hospital for about 3 months. During this time I couldn’t walk or hardly move. As a result of all of this I am now on dialysis. Being only 28 and full of life dialysis takes a lot out of me. But to God be the Glory. I have come a long way since then. God gave me a second chance at life and for that I am grateful. Anyone that knew me before, know that I am a changed woman. I have no grudges. I am too excited about living my life for me and my son.
