I will never forget the month of August of 2014 because thats when my life changed forever. Like most people I woke up and went on about my life. I dont remember the date but it was a Friday when I started to work at my new job at canes. I was so happy because I knew that now that Im working money wont be so tight. Since I live with my fiancé and we have our own apartment we have all this bills to cover. So I was pretty happy that there was going to be more money for us actually have couple time. That Friday I went in at 9 and started to get trained a couple of hours later something strange and scary happened. One of my coworker passed out. She fell on top of the trash cans that she had close to her. I knew from experience to put her flat on the floor and to give her space to breath. Thank God shes okay but I never thought the very next day it would be me unconscious on my own bed. That same night I got this headache that wouldnt go away. Then I felt noxious. I decided to wait it out and see how I felt in the morning. The next morning I woke up and felt even worse. So I called in and went back to bed. I woke up like around 12 and watched Netflix. Since ricardo goes in to work at 5 am I dont see him till almost 3 when he gets home. I decided to wait for him so we could eat together. He called me after he got off work and asked me if I wanted to anything to eat and I told him to get me taco bell. When he got home we ate together and we went to the room, I usually call my dad to ask him what his doing Saturdays so as usual I did so we talked and he invited us to go the grapevine mall aquarium with him and my brother and I said that we would meet him there since he was on his way. Not 10 minutes later I texted him that I couldnt make it......the last thing I remember was seeing his text asking why not. Then I experienced the worst headache in my life. I couldnt see clearly I couldnt breath. I kept screaming because I couldnt bare the pain. Then I threw up all over the bed. I remember ricardo calling my dad in tears telling him that there was something wrong that I kept screaming and vomiting. Then I heard my dad say take her to the emergency room now Ill met you there. I remember barely making it down the stairs since we live on the 3rd floor. I felt so weak....numb. Ricardo Salinas put me in the car and drove. To me it felt like 5 minutes because I kept passing out. I would wake up to throw up. When we got to the hospital I was scared.....I thought I was going to die that day. I couldnt keep my head up. When I got there they put me in a wheel chair and told ricardo to take me to the lobby and wait there. I dont know how long it was till my dad got there but I remember hearing his voice asking ricardo what happened. I remember him touching my shoulder and all I could think was this might be the last time I feel my dad. I kept crying and crying and begging to see a doctor I didnt want to die. Then a male nurse saw me and kept asking me questions I couldnt answer I didnt have the strength. He rubbed my sternum but I barely felt it. So he rushed him inside and the doctors rushed in. There were 3 doctors and a lot of nurses and they took all my clothes off. Then the doctor asked the nurse what was wrong with me and the nurse told him he saw signs that I had a bleeding in head. Internal bleeding. They started to poke me with needles everywhere. I cried bc i was in to much pain. I kept saying I dont want to die. Kept crying. I dont remember anything after that.....I woke up the day after. I saw faces of my friends. I saw ricardo. Then I woke up again and I was tied to the hospital bed I had something down my throat and I didnt know what it was. I kept trying to pull it out but I was tied down. Then I woke up and I saw someone I never seen before at the foot on my bed...sitting there he turned back to look at me and he reached out and grabbed my right foot and said dont worry everything is okay and disappeared. That was a angel that was sent my God to tell me that because then I saw this hug light. A light that was was so great I couldnt even look at and I heard the Lord say to me to not worry I was going to be okay. The next day I woke up and the tubes were gone. Thats when my mom told me that it was so I could breath. That they tied me down bc i kept trying to take the tubes out and if I had done that I wouldve gotten any oxygen. Then my mom explained to me what had happened. I had suffered from AVM. I Was born with Arteries and veins in my brain that connected to each other when they werent supposed to be connected. When they are it caused them to break and thats what had happened to me. The doctors had told my parents that there was no hope for me. No chance for me to survive and if if I did that I was going to be paralyzed or special. The very next day day I woke up and started to move. The 3rd day I started move even more and started to talk. After 1 and a half week I was moved from the ICU to my own room they started physical therapy. I started to walk I talked more but I was in pain because they open my head and and put tubes in to take the blood and water I had in my brain. But that I got better and better each day. The doctors looked at me like they couldnt believe I was there talking talking to them. They said it was a miracle but I knew it was the work of the Lord. After they had told told my parents it would be months before I woke up if I woke up I was discharged from the hospital. I dont know why God forgave me and gave me a second chance to live but I am thankful that he did. Im thankful that Im here telling you guys my story. Im thankful that I get to spend another day with my family. Im thankful to the Lord. I am Noone to deserve his mercy but to him him I was. Just like he thinks everyone of you is.
