Almost paralyzed
Due to the spinal injury from first grade after being run over and lack of proper care, my spine basically collapsed, and I was almost paralyzed from the middle of my back down. Now, I can walk and drive again, but, at the time, I could not even brush my own hair or change my clothes. I had to quit my job and almost quit my schooling. -
Mom Moved back to Mississippi
My mom moved back to Mississippi, and I decided to stay in Oklahoma. God wants me here, my life is here, and this is my fresh start. Most run away from Oklahoma, but I ran towards it, and here I shall stay. It's just little ole me out here! My closest relative is on the coast of Louisiana. -
Adopted my Puppy!
I aimed to adopt a grown dog around 60 pounds, but I instead fell in love with a 4 month old rescue dog who will top out around 90-100 pounds. -
Evacuation of my House
After discovering toxic live black mold everywhere in the rental house had just moved into, my roommate and I had to evacuate, begin a lawsuit (that we won) to break our lease and have our belongings replaced. We had to live in small hotel rooms for about a month until we found a place to live. Everything we owned was taken to be professionally cleaned, but most everything was lost because the mold spores would not be able to be cleaned out. -
COVID/Freedom
Right at the beginning of the pandemic, I was freed from the toxic relationship and began to find my voice.
