Sara 's Story
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me About Me:I am happily married now for almost 7 yrs Prince awesomeness is Jason Howsare I have a 13 yr old daughter named Aaliyah (jewish name meaning a special blessing ..She really is ) I have been through alot in my life Most recent 2 kidney transplants and dialisis for a year and a half I feel that i couldn't have done this without God first of all He has been there holding me and comforting me with his word (the bible) my husband holding my hand ,sleeping on a kot , driving me to appts, worring and praying (my Rock) my Mom and sister Jodi for donating apart of themselves to me giving me life again and another chance to NEVER take it for granted
My kidneys had been failing since i was born alot of bladder infections plus reflux of urine backing into my kidneys Plus all of the strong antibiotics that were given to me as a baby my body couldn't handle it so it caused scar tissue to build up over and over on my kidneys at then at age 30 they quit my brave sister Jodi gave me hers and it failed before i left the hospital My husband and i was devistated and scared of what was to come dialisis (i heard so much of bad things about it) My husband at that moment realized he wasn't in control of everything like he had thought gave his life to God My mom stepped up and gave me another chance (how do you repay someone for giving you life twice) I have had her kidney for over a year now and i am totally healed i don't have to take alot of pills just 3 kinds and alot of vitamins I have no limitations and we can start over and have up to 3 children Everyday is a gift No one knows how blessed they are until its gets taken from them I don't tell my storey to get sympathy from others I tell my storey to show others that they are blessed but only through God i was made strong again..God bless each of you as you walk through life remember it can all be taken away everything you see is made from dust..but your soul where have you chosen to place that?
25 random things about me
(ok here i go)
1 I have 4 sister's and 1 brother (they are the best i love them very much)
2 I am an all or nothing kind of girl (i don't choose to be ..it just happen's that i am)
3 I think i am ADD (wish i had the hyper but i don't) I have to tell myself to focus all the time because i get distracted so easily unless i am in a quiet room them i am very focused
4 I look at peoples mouths when they talk to me because if i looked at their eyes i would think about how they are feeling and what pretty eyes they have ..and what did they say..yeah revert back to #3
5 I am a people watcher ..I could do it all the time..I watch biographys ..i watch how different people are and i am amazed and intreged by this..i want to know more and more about what makes people tick
I will be the old lady in the mall that watches everyone..look..next time you will see what i mean
6 If i am not helping others I feel useless..uneventful..that is why i am in the nursing feild i love making people smile and feel better about themselves
7 I am a nervous person if i don't know you..i fight this all the time..I think that others think that i am weird because of this ..but my husband says that is in my head..(i had an abusive stepfather that would hell at me all the time and i believe that is why i became nervous)...
8 I have always been boy crazy..ever since kindergarden..I call a good looking man eye candy. my husband knows this..however I am exstremly loyal and dedicated to my perfect eye candy at home ..he he ..my husband..to me no one compares to him..it will be him and i forever..I don't want another soul..I love you baby xox
9 I can't spell..i took 2 classes of english 101 and failed both of them..i tried very very hard..i don't get it ..maybe i should have taken up spanish..you know they said english is the hardest language to learn..so please forgive my grammer..my husband is perfect at it though
10 My husband is my b-day present ..i was at my best friends house and she brought over Jason on my b-day She said we would be perfect together and she was right..
11 I would love to travel.to see the world..but money is involved..and that we will have to wait on..I grew up isolated in a house out in PA with amish people all around me dreaming of the day i could break free (i think there is a song about that called breakaway by kelly clarkson) and i am still dreaming of it ..he he
12 My daugh...Expand for more
ter is my miracle child ..I was told at 16yrs old my body because of my kidneys could not support a child and i should never have one I cried out to God and said if you just give me one i will be happy I had a difficult pregnancy because my kidneys were running on 30 % function but the kidney doctor said that my kidneys never decreased during the pregnancy and that he had never seen that happen before..God is what happen..Her father and i named her Aaliyah because we liked the name..but we found out when she was 6 months old a jewish lady told me her name meant " a special blessing" and i nearly fell out
13 Music is my world. i love it..all kinds from musicals to hard rock . however i am feeling it speaks for me..I use to write poems so i admire a good song and how it is written..I use to make up songs when i was alone and walking and sing them to God .(but no i can't sing ..if you hear me talk you will know why)
14 I took 4 yrs of Home Economics in high school learned how to sow and cook..a little ..still don't know much..that was my social class..he he
15 I was born with a lump on my spine the size of a half dollar medically it was called a menigisil about 3 percent of the population comes out somewhat normal from this the others are retarted swelling of the brain or can't walk..God blessed me and i was normal ..i had it removed at 4 months old
16 i have always known who my perfect husband was going to be..i drept him up and a little girl..just settled for less 2 times..and prayed God would bring him to me..met him on my b-day..my Jason is everything i dreamed of x 10 I feel blessed and honored wake up beside him and go on this journey called life with him..
17 i was given 2 kidneys one by my sister Jodi which failed before i left the hospital (then i went on dialisis for a year and a half) the other by my Mom ..to which it has been over a year now and is going strong I have no limitaitions and Jason and i can start having more children (up to 3) the doctors have told me...How do you repay the people who have blessed you in your life..you can't..but to never take a day for granted and look to God to keep you healthy and strong
18 I cut all my hair off when i was 11 and i have been trying to grow it long ever since..i want mermaid hair as my dear sister Donna calls it
19 I am a very clean person I like my house to be clean( in fact i need to go clean right about now) and my body ..I have assited in way to many papsmears to be nasty like that ..Gross..
20 I have a somewhat i pinch voice and it cracks alot..(it has its own mind about how it is going to sound) people say its not annoying and people ask me if i am crying or if my parents are home all the time..but it doesn't bother me..I hear it is sweet sounding too
21 I have a MAN voice i break out from time to time..my voice can get very very deep and people are amazed by this..i use it on my Dog to get him to listen to me ..and everyone stares at me like they couldn't believe that voice came from me
22 I lived in alot of different states growing up ( CO, SC , PA and NJ )and i have moved alot while i have been in SC (my husband has kept me stable now)
23 I grew up with my step dad owning a campground in NJ and it was AWESOME it was where i exscaped and where i felt loved..like alice in wonderland..people from NJ and NY would come down every weekend and sometimes during the week in the summer and we would swim and paddle boat and make lots of freinds and have love triangles it was my everything..until age 12 when i moved away..to SC and PA but i would go back to visit until age 16 when i moved out of my house completely
24 that briing me to moving out of my house at age 16 I lived from friend to freind since my step dad was so abusive..i wanted to graduate high school so 3 different homes took me in To this day i could never repay or thank them enough for watching over me..i even slept under my boyfriends bed to have a roof over my head..i contiplated buying a tent and sleeping my the river in the woods. but that never happen..
25 i am EXSTREMLY effectionate..sometimes to much ..i have to tell myself not to hug people..and sit on my hands..I could hug everyone..I even touch people knees and hands when i talk with them..my husband told me men can get the wrong idea..so i try not to do that when men...Crazy huh?
