A little history

I met my husband when I was only 12 years old, but I could not stand him even though he followed me around like a little lost puppy. He was then and still is a person that doesn't believe in giving up. After a few short years of him always being around (since he was smart enough to become friends with my dad, so he would get invited over by someone other than me.... my dad only had daughters, so Kevin quickly filled in as his son), we became best friends. We were always together hanging out at my house or his.... playing pool or video games at my house, or playing cards or board games at his. The only problem was that he liked me as more than a friend, but I always had a boyfriend which was never him. Finally after a while he decided (with the encouragement of his parents) not to hang out with me..... After about a year of that I realized that was something I couldn't live with, and told him how I really felt. We were engaged about 3 months later... Christmas of 2000, and married on May 26, 2001. We were happily married for about a month when the doctors found cervical cancer, and I was told that I would never be able to have children......

  2. Thank You. I got diagnosed in June of 2001 and had cryotherapy to freeze off the cancer cells. It was one of the worst experiences of my life, but hey I was able to have my girls which made it worth it ;)
