Out Of Hiding
Removing The Mask

My desire was to eventually one day get married and give birth to 5 children. Instead I miscarried 6 times. I got pregnant by my first boyfriend at the age of 15 years old, which was also when I had my first miscarriage. At the tender age of 15, my main focus then turned to having my first child. I was determined and driven to do whatever it took to accomplish this. After My fourth miscarriage I learned that I had Anti-phospholipid Syndrome. A blood clotting disorder that causes woman to have repeated miscarriages. Through the physical and mental pain, the heart ache, the confusion, the depression, the unknown, and discouragement, I managed to find encouragement, motivation, faith, strength, and patience to accomplish my desire. By the grace of God I managed to give birth to one child in my seventh pregnancy.
