I am the mother of 2 of the most wonderful boys, I am so proud of the young men they are, trust me I am still in shock they are mine, they are so much better people than I was at their age :)
My eldest was born in 1993 and my youngest 1997 :)
I am married to the most amazing man I have ever met, and am so honored to be his wife! He changed his whole life and life's goals for me. To say he is my Hero is putting it way to lightly!
Late March of 2011 something was just wrong with my head (although I have had horrible migraines since 1999) My husband finely talked me into seeing a doctor, who sent me to a Neurologist, who took and MRI that found out a part of my cerebellum had started to slide down into my spine. It is a condition called Chiari Malformation.
April 18th 2011 - I had Brain Surgery - They had to cut out some my brain, rebuild my skull (so it would not happen again) and decompress my first vertebra. I had an amazing surgeon and am forever grateful for his skilled hands
2 months later I was back at work, but everyone noticed that there was something wrong, I could not lift anymore and would have a hard time walking and talking. My team was amazing when they saw I was havin a rough time they would corral me into my office. I love them so much!
My husband entered the Air Force in September 2012 (it took a while for him to get in - He was in DEP for months waiting)
He had received his Associates Degree in Criminal Justice, and wanted to be a Police Officer, but that all changed after my surgery and watching my health still in decline - He chose a new path, just for me, to make sure I had good insurance. As I said Earlier I am so honored and blessed to be his wife.
I had to quit my job, I was getting worse and it was no longer safe for me to keep working, plus I started to miss more than was fair to anyone.
After years of Doctors and Neurologists messing with me, trying everything anyone could try, they have decided that I have a chronic complex migraine, a Hemilegic Migraine.
My daily life consists of a horrible Migraine pain that never stops not even when I sleep, and everyday something odd seems to happen, from my left side going numb, to my legs becoming hard to walk with, to my inability to speak, you never know when or what will go wrong but something always seem to. Then there are days that I am just in so much pain, I just can't function.
This blog was started because my neuropsychologist said I should start a blog. I did not want to write about my day to day challenges, or my feelings so I thought I would write about something that would help others and something that I love so I came up with this - LoveMyOils :)
So if you like this blog, It makes me so happy you do and Thank her, :)
I hope you enjoy :)
Side note sorry that I do not always post consistently - I try my best, but I have good and bad days, good and bad weeks. I hope you keep checking back!
