LifeWhat has my life been like since highschool.  While my parents divorce December 26, 1983.  We moved to Milwaukee.Their final court date was June 1984.  That December 29 my mom remarried.  And, we moved to Brookfield.  Then we moved to West Allis July 1988.  That August my mom, 2 sisters and I took a train ride to Gorgia to see my 1 sister and went to Flordia to Sea World and Walt Disney World.  I came back and broke up for the last time with my soon to be husband.  March 1989 was the best way to a ending of a bad beginning of a year where I had to have surgery.  I met my husbad which I married that September only 6 months after knowing him.Our 1st daughter came June 22, 1990.  She is a CNA and helps out with Special Olympics.  She is gradurating from highschool May 24, 2008.  Her and her boyfriend who she has known for 4 years and been good friends with for 2 of them and started to date the beginning of 2008.  Are planning a summer wedding.On March 1991 I came to know Jesus as my personally Saviour.  In 1994 I went to college only for 1 of the 2 year program for Microcomputer Specialist.  I got pregnant with my 1st son.  Which was born November 9, 1995.  I never returned to school after him.  I actually 1 month before he was born started to homeschool my daughter.I had to from October of 1996 till January 4 1997 help take care of my step dad who had brain cancer.  We put him in Woods nursing home on January 4 or  so and he died there on Jan 27.Then I had my 2nd daughter on June 18, 1998.  She was a normal pregnancy we taught till she was born.  On June 24,1998 she had a heart surgery.  On July 1, 1998 she had a stomach surgery where she was to die with or without the surgery.  She didn't come home till she was 6 weeks old.  At that time we had to learn to take care of her special cares.  She had 5 surgeries in her 1st 5 1/2 months.  Her 1st year I lived out of a suitcase she was in and out of the hospital like a yo-yo.  In the time she was 7 she had a total of 12 surgies.  She is in special olympics because she is not just medically handicap but mentally also.  She has a syndrome called Williams Syndrome.  There is only 1 in 1000 people have it in the world.  It is like Down syndrome in some ways.  I have a step sister that has it also from my father  he married a women August 1985 who has 8 children.  So they have a total of 12 children.  My father has 15 grandchildren and 1 step grandchild.  I don't know how many grandchildren my step mom has.When this daughter was 13 days old she crashed 3 time on the OR.  The doctor came out of the surgery and told us if our daughter made it in the next 48 hours she then would have 50% chance of making it.  But, don't plan on her making it though the night.  If it wasn't that I knew Jesus I wouldn't have gotten throught this.  I was laying down because I was tried out from having a c-section only 13 days before hand.  I prayed to God to help me plan her furnal and He told me that I don't need to plan one that she was going to make it.  He was lifting me up at that time when He told me she was going to make it.  My husband then came in the room and told me that 2 nurses are working on her one on each side.  And, that they will be there all night.  I told him that she is going to make it and he asked me how do I know that.  I told him what happen.  He went back to our daughter and came back right away and told me they only now need 1 nurse with her all night and we knew she was going to live.  My mother-in-law came up the next morning to be with me and I told her what happen the night before.  My husband had to go to work but he kept calling to check up on her through the day. My mother-in-law only came up so I could rest when I was tried and that I was not alone if something happen to her.  I tried so much because I didn't get the rest I needed after the c-section with 2 other children already. And, going to the hospital that everynight.  I even left my hospital on a day pass to be with my daughter.  She left my hospital the day after she was born my mother-in-law was with me and my father-in-law went across town with my husband when she was taked over to Children's Hospital of Milwaukee or across town.  My father-in-law came up that night to pick my mother-in-law up and I told him the same thing.  When she was 1 day short of 4 months old we were in a car accident that damanaged my mid to low back where I walk with a cane all the time from Novemeber to March and at times from April to October (depends on how much I need to walk, wether, or how long I have to stand).On March 15, 2001 I had m...Expand for more
