The 3 years before being diagnosed....

In 2001 I mett a man by the name of JC. We began a relationship and all was good until he hit me. Three weeks after I had gotten rid of him, I found out I was pregnant.

On July 10, 2002 I gave birth to our daughter Isabella Lynn. JC wanted nothing to do with our daughter so I gained full custody. He moved to Salt Lake City just to get away from her.

10 days after she was born I woke up and felt as if I needed to pee, only it wasnt pee that came out. I was hemmorhaging. I called Brenda to come get me and take me to the ER. They immediately done a sonogram and found massive amounts of blood clots within the cavity so they decided to do an emergency D & C on me. I also recieved 2 pints of blood. This was what began the long list of surgeries for me.

In the following 3 years I had to have a tubal ligation, hysterectomy, oopherectomy, chemotherapy and radiation therapy for breast cancer, laminectomy with fussion on L4-L5, and several small surgeries to remove polyps from various parts of my body.

The worst was yet to come, little did I know.
