It took 3 years, numerous doctors and breaking/ fracturing my feet and ribs numerous times just to get a doctor to accept there was something wrong with me other than my weight. I have broken/ fractured my feet 15 times in the last 4 years and broken my ribs 3 times. I struggle with this disease everyday but I'm not giving up. I have a wonderful husband and 3 lively teenagers at home that need me and a GOD that is stronger than this disease.
