My Health

On March 27,1996, I laid down on my bed thinking I was so tired about 1:00 p.m.  I didn't even have the energy to call into work. I had no idea my blood pressure was collapsing to near death levels. My Mom tried to wake me up when she came in but couldn't. So she tried the next morning, I was still out of it so bad that she had to dress me and take me to the hospital. She got me to the hospital and I barely had a pulse or a blood pressure. I don't even remember the early hours in the hospital, but I do remember seeing some friends from my job at my bedside that night. Minutes later I was on my way to surgery, and don't remember anything for weeks. I had several operations which came to no avail.  I was put on life support later that night, not expecting to ever recover. Six weeks later, I came off life support miraculously. However, being on my back so long and not able to walk, I lost all strength in my legs, and had to learn to walk again. Through intensive therapy and pain, I regained all strength in my legs to walk again. By July 27, through dietary changes and dialysis, I came off dialysis, which was taking place of my kidneys, meaning my kidneys had done restored themselves well enough to work on their own until the following March when I had a car accident. The lab reports findings reported kidney failure and I have been back on dialysis since then. To learn more about kidney failure and dialysis, see the below links for information.

                                              My Hobbies and Interests

I enjoying singing, and playing music, including karaoke. I like all styles of music from rock, pop, country, soft rock and romantic to even some classical.
I enjoying read various materials, not so much as novels unless one really catches my attention. I enjoy computers and Internet. I really enjoy cooking, and dancing, and watching some sports, such as Streetluge, Hockey, and Baseball, especially the Braves.
I do really like fishing but I don't never go as often as I would like. I do enjoy discovering new things when there is a special someone in my life. However that has not happened lately, so I'll keep looking or she walks my way. Wrestling is
another favorite sport I enjoy watching, especially WCW.  My favorites are
Bill Goldberg, Sting, and Diamond Dallas Page, and I've started liking the NWO Wolfpack, not the Hollywood NWO.
