Personal Narrative: Fertilization

The doctors were adamant that without a transplant, I wouldn’t live past four years of age. Eventually, the days turned into months and the months passed into another year and I had beaten the odds. I was still sick a lot, made frequent trips to the hospital and faced an uncertain future. The doctors continued to have a less than ideal outlook on my life and advised that I would be lucky if I made it to twelve years old.

7. Don’t Worry If Your Child Isn’t Reaching Development Milestones My daughter didn’t start walking until she was thirteen months old—about the time all the baby books said I would need to consult a doctor if she wasn’t walking by then.

There is nothing more frustrating then being asked that question when you’re a Type 1 Diabetic.

That is a lot for a fourth grader to take on. One doctor told my mom I had aspergers and that I would never make it anywhere just as my teacher had told me.

A child’s dream that someday I will be a nurse and that dream will come into reality when my Aunt offered her support to send me to a nursing school.

Sometimes it works if you set your mind on something else and ignore the morning sickness altogether.

Through all the difficulties and fights, and even though I caused trouble for my parents with my problems, my family were always my backbone. It was suggested to my parents for me to be treated on an adult’s dose of anti-anxiety medication, with side effects which were unknown to me. I do not have memory of being on any medication and all my changes I believed were just natural. Only recently I found out the truth and all the changes in my appearance were the side-effects about which my parents were concerned. My life was back on track and I was taken off my tablets and learned to deal with my problems.

My doctor thought it was best I did not work until I am no longer considered high risk and that was up until I was almost seven months pregnant so it’s hard to find a job and get maternity leave this late in my pregnancy. My favorite activities is reading, watching Criminal Investigation shows such as Law and Order or Mystery shows.
