Lashell, I am so glad that you brought the subject of our genetic mutations up. This is so important that we learn something about us. If my husbans's family were not so sick from cycle cell anemia, I would never have heard about it way back when as I did. One of my friends found out what kind of treatment she should have be getting for what she had been suffering and informed her doctor of these signs(she learned this from another friend whose family had these signs). Debbie then toldl her doctor what to look for. She has Lupus.The doctor who had been treating her, had no clue.Now, even I am aware that so many Black women suffer from this medical condition.

I suppose the biggest thing would be FAILING..
I am so scared of failure that it puts knots in my stomach..
I cant settle for anything less than the best..
and as long as I try, Im hoping that will be the outcome.
I cant come back to my community.. I cant settle for a barely
minimum paying job..
I just cant.
I need to find the strength within myself to stay motivated.. and do well..
but Im afraid I will lose focus :( Tagged by Chamieka House on 07/29/2008 |
