MY STORY
“I'm a full-time writer, wife to Big Daddy and mom x 3 to Big Boy, Chip Chip and Boogies. I can do all things through Christ, french fries, the perfect song and a scenic view. I believe that life is a series of small miracles ... if you look at it with the right perspective.
In September of 2011, I could walk, run, ski, skip and do cartwheels. But all of those abilities were taken away after an unlikely diagnosis of Avascular Necrosis (also known as osteonecrosis or AVN) in my hips and shoulders.
As of today, my case is known as idiopathic, meaning doctors have not been able to figure out what caused me to develop AVN/ON.Personally, I believe that the Mirena IUD, which was inserted in May of 2011 and removed in December of 2011, created a Perfect Storm within my body.”
