R.I.P. My Twenties

I'm starting a great new decade of my life!

My teenage years and 20s were dominated by health issues, pain, and suffering. However, I'm beginning my 30s with a strong buzzing of potential, stable health, and good support systems!

My last milestone birthday, 21, I had an emergency cranial decompression and was placed in an induced coma and there wasn't much hope I'd wake up. I have memories of hearing people cry while singing “happy birthday” to me in the coma - but I lived to hear it (awake) 9 years later!

My story isn't over yet…
