1982

In October of 1982 I was born. That day from what I was told was nothing more than a Journey that nobody saw coming but God. I was the first child to be born to my Mom. My mom was only 19 when she had me. That day she gave birth to me not knowing that her life would be changed forever. If she only knew what was in store for her. I was born with severe medical issues in the face. I came out missing an eye, my ears were I guess not in proper location and didn't have a developed nose and even had cleft lip/palate. Can you imagine going into labor not knowing this was was in store for you? As a Mom of 4 and how far we have come in technology we already know for the most part how our child is doing in the womb. Going back to my birth story, I can see the shock my Mom encounter in that moment. Mom told me when she saw me despite the way I came out that i was the most beautiful baby she had ever laid eyes on. What mother doesn't say that about her child. We all fall in love for the first time with every child we have. Doctors told my Mom that I would never be able to talk or walk that if i survived I would just be bedridden. Little did she know what God had in store for me. If she knew, she would have not struggled emotionally with the news that was thrown at her with only her family to support her. My father was absent. My Mom is one of the strongest people that I know. My Grandma that I call Mama played an incredible role in my life. You will hear a lot about my "Mama" I strongly believe that God had and has a purpose in my life. My Mom learned how to deal with the situation as the days went by when "My Journey" began. My journey has been nothing short but a miracle with God's hand in this whole journey that I'm in. I know my Blog says, Super Mom trying to stay afloat", it wouldn't be a story until you know exactly where I'm going with this but to start at the beginning. Trust me you don't want to miss out. Lets get ready to know me deeper as a person with struggles that I had and have to endure and how I got through and gong through. To be continued.........

My first blogged is Dedicated to my Mama and Mom. My Mama would have be so proud of everything I have accomplished so far. I miss my Mama so much. It will be 10 years since she went Home in September 2011.
