YOUR STORY


Have you ever listened to someone else tell YOUR story?  Well, this just happened to me as a friend was telling a new friend about my story.  It was a punch to the gut and made me swallow hard when I heard my story come out of the mouth of someone else.

One thing that really took my breath away was when they said, “Essentially, she was born to die.”  They went on to elaborate that everyone is born to die, but I am on that spectrum much higher than most.  They asked my other friend how they would feel to have to wake up daily wondering what was looming for them and if today was going to be the day.  I certainly don’t have that mentality, but I can see how someone would think that.  I can’t stop thinking about the whole, “she was born to die” phrase and how deep that is.  Thank goodness I had the option to be preventative and hopefully can fight that dying thing off a little longer…..I still have a lot I would like to do in my life!

I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU DO IT...WASN'T GIVEN A CHOICE


RISK ASSESSMENT FOR HEREDITARY CANCER


LOVE that genetic testing is becoming a norm...
Also, CDH1 is something my hometown Clinic is including in the testing and my doc said 
it’s become very affordable as of recent!!! 


YOU HAVE BEEN ASSIGNED THIS MOUNTAIN....


BABY

My kiddos at school sure keep me on my toes. One of my 6th graders asked if I could still have kids without a stomach. I explained that I can, but it’s a bit harder as I’m trying to get as many nutrients as I can, let alone trying to give a baby nutrients. He said, “No, I don’t think you get it. Like you don’t have a stomach and a baby grows in your STOMACH!” 🤦🏼‍♀️ I informed him that he would need to discuss this with his parents. 😂😂😂

EXCUSE THE LANGUAGE, but.....

YEP!
