    • About Me

      I love animals that is why I work with them everyday. I have two cats, a dog and a turtle. I am currently a supervisor and a veterinary assistant. I am studying to become a veterinary technician. I was schedule to graduate in May but due to health issues I have to postpone my graduation. But that is okay with me as long as I am healthy when it is all over.

    • Close Breakups & Divorce

      Recently I have had two surgeries on to remove the ovarian tumor and the other to remove the ovary. I was afriad of all of this and started a fight over something very stupid with my boyfriend of 11yrs. I think this fight was the breaking point for him. Well it over and now I have to learn to live without the person I thought I would spend the rest of my life with. His loss.
