This picture was taken two weeks after my surgery.

Hi, I’m in my mid 30s and I have a few chronic illnesses. It started when I was in my 20s and I have since gotten used to being sick. I tried my best to hide my pain from others but sometimes I breakdown.

I have the best husband anyone could asked for and a strong family foundation who never failed to give me motivation to never give up. I’m blessed.

I’ve been married for 8 years now and I’ve been on Dialysis for 6 years. Due to dialysis, I started to have problems with my heart and recently I was diagnosed with heart failure as well aside from Chronic Kidney Disease Failure. Due to my illness I’m unable to carry a child to term. I have been pregnant twice so far and both pregnancy did not made it to 3 months in my womb. I have come to term with the fact that I may never be able to have my own child. I do however have a nephew and niece who I adore more than anything in this world. They love me so much that I feel whole whenever I am with them.

I was introduced to this app by my sister who says that I can write down my life story or share with others. It’s kinda like blogspot which I used to have. I’m not embarrassed to let people know my life story because even though I’m sick, life still goes on and maybe my story will bring some light to other patients who feel like giving up.

Till then.
