On August 2, 2010, I woke up in the hospital broken, not able to move, terrified..
...just as Covid was rearing its ugly head, I was hospitalized for 5 long days with major breathing issues...
...I was diagnosed with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) which is terminal without a lung transplant...
...the doctors gave me the choice of cancer treatment or amputation. Without hesitation, I chose amputation...
