Dr.Cortes and I have a date!
Ok to all my lovelys...I finally have taken the big step to announce that im going with the man Cortes! A lttle about myself...I was diagnosed with stage 4a Cervical Cancer in May of 2010. I under went 25 (external) radiation treatments, 5 (internal) radiation treatments and chemotherapy every monday for a 3 months. I was admitted into the hospital for my kidney shutting down that June and was there for a month and a half. Finally in September I was seeing some light at 5he end of my tunnel and was giving the "you are cancer free" talk...words can not express the feeling (tears of joy). I thank God for all the time he helped me and the conversation that we had in the last 3 months and tried to back to a "normal" life again.
Well 2 years went by and next thing I know I'm back in the hospital again. Yep thats right again...ugh...my left kidney had been so damaged from the cancer that it basically killed it...they had to remove it! So here we go again with recovery a scar (that is from right were my ribs start to the top of my bellybutton). Then I see 2 more small scars that go across my abdomen.
I have been through alot and been on every kind of med/steroid, can finally tast my food and loving it. So I start eating like the u.s.a may run into a shortage of food soon and a 70 lbs weight gain later...I hate myself! However I am not a quitter and so in November I decided that this is not the person I want to be....sooooi have lost 64 lbs to date! =)
This surgery means alot to me and I am so excited about my future. I decided to do this in February so I have time to heal before my exciting upcoming summer 2015. My oldest son graduates high school, my only sister is getting married and its my 20 year class reunion! Im gonna be a bad assss with a bad assssss....lol! Much love to you all I evjoy reading about all of your journey's and I am excited to share mine with all of you ladies! #fabulous2015

Baez Doll...November 2014!
So let me first say that like many I got over whelmed with some things and need to breath to clear my mind a bit. So we (me and my mom) are going with Dra Baez November 11th is my surgery and November 12th is my mom! We sent her our deposits...done! We booked our flights November 9th-21st Delta. And last but not least we have booked and sent our deposit to Upscale RH...excited!
I just wanted to touch on this too...me personally lovvveeee Dra Duran and Dr Cabral's work they are amazing however...1) I need communication especially if this is a person who will be working on me physically! I understand that people get busy but I dont feel comfortable not being able to get in touch with this person in a timely manner....2) if there is something inside of you telling, nagging at you that something is not rights...listen to it!!!
I wanted to touch on one more thing before I post this (hopefully...lmao)! I want to Thank all of you...you have all been a part of my life and making decisions that I could not have made without you! So thank you for helping me transform and make a better me figure wise and intelligence wise. May GOD continue to bless us all with sx and life in gerneral and keep pointing us in the right direction! Much love ladies...keep it moving forward... #fabulous2014
