    • About Me

      I received the blessing of a kidney transplant in 4/1997 that changed my life forever. I am happily married to the love of my life, Ryan, for 8 wonderful years now. We have 2 furry children; our chocolate lab Rooney, and our calico cat Calie. Although we sufffered the devastating loss of our first pregnancy, we are believing that our little miracle will come to complete our family soon!

      After 6 years believing to conceive, we conceived naturally! We were diagnosed with a devastating blight ovum at about 8 weeks. After everything we have been through up to this point I chose the D&C option. Surgery was 7/17/09 so we are waiting for a normal cycle and the all clear to try again. The sadness and loss is very difficult and deep but I know I must move forward and hope again.
