I didn't think about it, but writing this brings a lot of old feelings back. I can't help but look back at the last seven years of my life, at least what I can remember of them and the worst moments come to mind. From that very first memory that always makes me sad and … Continue reading Seven years later…

I came home from work very hungry and wanted to cook something quickly, so I decided to go with shrimp and french fries. I usually just put these in the oven and toaster oven and they're done in less than 20 minutes; it's very easy and that's just what I wanted. The only problem was … Continue reading When the smoke detector goes off

It's been no big deal, but they do trust me with the new car, with supervision of course.

I think one of the many things that can help you heal from whatever situation you're going through is charing your experience and talking to other people.

I thought I was over the whole "crossing the street" thing, but nope, I can't do it. I was about to cross the street when I just froze on the sidewalk. I couldn't do it. I saw the cars coming, I thought I had enough time to get across, but I couldn't move. I was … Continue reading I just stood there
Good news, my first official driving lesson was a success! The driving instructor was not scared by my driving, he actually said I did pretty well and I had no accidents. There I was again, sitting in a car with a bumper sticker that said student driver but it was my first real attempt to … Continue reading Driving lessons- Day 1
In just a few hours we'll get what feels like a new start. I know there's a lot of us who need a new start but this doesn't necessarily come with a new year, a new calendar does. We have to go into the new year with a new attitude, I know I need to. … Continue reading Happy New Year!!! 2018!
Hurricane Irma is coming for Puerto Rico with full force and I'm terrified, we all are, but most of alll we have to stay calm and be prepared.

I don't regret the things I tried to do and failed. I only regret the things I didn't do and lost my chance of doing. I will never know what would have happened just because I was afraid. Don't be afraid to fail, it makes you human. Be brave, be unstoppable.
I knew this day was coming but I didn't think it would be now, I thought I had at least one month, and I wasn't sure how I felt about it. Happy, scared or just nervous? But today I got the ok. I was at my 6 month visit to the neurologist and like always … Continue reading Ready to drive?
Today, we took our dogs for their daily walk, but we took a different route. Instead of starting next to the avenue, like we usually do, we decided to walk next to the highway which is one street down from the avenue. As we were walking we realized that the sidewalk down there is not … Continue reading I’m never letting go again
First I will say that as of yesterday I am I year and 7 months seizure free! Five months to go! There were other, more important things going on. Because of these, I did not get to celebrate this time, but it's ok. I'm still recovering from what happened yesterday. I woke up at 7:30 … Continue reading November 8, 2016
