5 things about this mom Meme

I am joining two contest in the MommyFest 2008. Actually I just wanted to the meme so the prize is just secondary.

So here are five things about ME :

1. I am 29 year old mother to a daughter who will be turning two on July 23. At the moment, I am the sole caregiver for her since my husband is in Kuwait working as an engineer and would only come home twice a year for a vacation. We have no househelp. But I am planning to hire one once I got pregnant for the second baby.
2. Everybody tag me as a FIGHTER. At the age of 15, i lost both my father and mother (12 days apart ) due to sickness. When I was 23 years old I was diagnosed with LUPUS. For four years I have been in and out of the hospital, feeling weak but was still able to stay at an eight to five job.
3. After eights year working with the leading IT company in the world, I gave up my job to become a stay at home mom.
4. I delivered our first born via CS operation since I am already suffering pre eclampsia (oe of many effects of LUPUS). The next day, I needed to moved slowly to make sure that there won't be any blood clots reoccuring. I suffered from pulmonary embolism when I got my lung operation due to pleurisy back in 2004.
5. Despite and inspite of LUPUS being incurable, now I am back to my normal life with monthly checkup with rheumatologist because of our faith (both me and my husband). We believe that God has better plans for us.
