The chronic pain that I endure every day is very hard. I have had a colostomy bag and I’m due to have my colon removed 4/10/18.

All I know every day is a fight for me and I’m 49 so I just keep pushing to survive. Because I’m a survivor and will not let a tractor-trailer who almost took my life from me, win.
