Tabatha's Story...

They told me that it was stress related complex migrains..for three long years i suffered with headaches that at times i could not even get out of bed with..then one day i got fed up with my doctor and i switched to a country farming old time doctor..and he told me he didn't think it was justa headache..he was right, the mri showed a very large pituitary tumor..mind you that the other doctor had sent me for mri's and cat scans but still said it was all in my mind..just a headache..thank god for country bumpkins!!!,

i go in for surgery on aug 11, 2005 for them to remove it..i now have to have chemo and radiation because it was left to grow for so long..i have three of the greatest kids anyone could want..2 girls 16 and 12, and a little boy that lights up the room just by walking in that is 10, he waws born with a rare type of hernia that destoyed his diaphram, his is now all mesh bonding to secure the muscle, his stomach was lodged next to the heart and lung and has to date had 8 major operations to correct different things that have went wrong, but he keeps saying we are strong and we can make it through anything. without them and my family i don't think i could handle this...
