Short Bio

I was diagnosed in 2014 then felt for 3 years after my diagnosis so healthy and felt to cut my appointments. After the 3years there was a drastic decline. Regularly hospitalized and chest pain and nerve pain. Out of breath easily and tire easily. Inspite of it all I have decided to go after my dreams. My dream is to write and sing gospel. I also write short stories and inspirational poetry. I will continue to live my life to the fullest just with more rest.
