I.S.I.S | The Goddess of Poetry - "Memoir In The Making"

From her Facebook post:
"Poetry2Lyrics|MEMOIRS
"Exclusive and Candid Excerpt of my book | My Testimony":

This was a true TEST from GOD

"Will I stray and stay away or will I fall upon my knees and find comfort and strength in thee?"

In this original facebook post, I stated that this would be the only testimony I will blog because I wanted you to experience all of my stories and walk a mile in my shoes through my biography/memoirs Poetry2Lyrics|MEMOIRS - "I Cry No More Pain". You will be introduced to many facets of my being, from a little girl until now. See for yourself that I am a living testimony and I should have died many times, however, I know that God spared my life, therefore, I can't stop testifying of Gods goodness.

I have enough testimonies to write 3 books about how I have been transformed, redeemed and saved from so much tragedy and pain. God has so much work for me to do in his kingdom & has a strong purpose in me to reach out to others; not even the devil himself is strong enough to stop it!!!"

So, until my book is publised and/or my spoken word CD is recorded, the testimonies will continue on until I can't speak anymore; book or not!

READ ON!

"Everyone has a testimony; a story to tell and has gone down a dark and turbulant road. We come from all walks of life and everyones story is different, but they are are equally as important because when sharing them with others, you may find that you are not alone on this walk or you may be helping someone else recover from what their fate may take them through. I'm no better than anyone else, but I do know that I have a powerful testimony and believe it in my gutt that God used me and allowed me to go through such pain and sorrow to not only make me stronger and closer to him but to also save at least one life and if it does that, I have served my purpose.

So let me give you a piece of my testimony that will be featured in my book of poetry.

"In 2005, I made the decision to move my family in hopes for a better life. We moved to Las Vegas on March 1st 2005. It was a struggle but I was overly confident that things would turn out just fine. I suppose I moved in haste without researching it a bit more. Nevertheless, I will tell you what happend from 2005-2006. In February of 2005, I purchased a brand new Kia Spectra, which God had CLEARLY blessed me with because not only was it red, but on the back it read, "Blessed Again". But what did I go and do? I traded it in for a brand new silver Kia Spectra EX; WHY DID I DO THAT? Moving right along, shortly after moving to Vegas, I began working for temp agencies for most of 2005, by day, and by night of course I partied Vegas style. Let me backup for a second and remind you I am a preachers kid and was saved; moved to Vegas and quickly backslid. Ok, now in November of 2005 I met a young man and we talked briefly. We lost contact but two months later we would find ourselves meeting up again at the same night "club".

So we hit it off and ended up being together for a little while. So lets speed things up:

May 5th I found out I was pregnant and though elated it was not a good time or with the right person to have a child. But, ok, ok, let me just tell you all that I had gone through that year and the approximate timeline it happend.

The dates here are estimates and for the sake of keeping some events exclusive for the book, I'll keep this brief:

March - I lose my temp job and my new beautiful apartment so I move in with my boyfriend

April 7th - In a car accident in my new car and its totalled, the boys and I survive but I lose my driving priviliges, etc.

April 15th - In a car accident on a major free way curve and nearly lose my life (I go through therapy and recover,slightly)

May 5 - Learn of Pregnancy
**It was a very difficult pregnancy and I was in and out of the hospital with stays of up to 2 weeks at a time. I had two "pic" (IV) lines inserted in both arms, which remained in my body throughout my pregnancy
.
**I move twice during this pregnancy due to relationship problems, it was very hard and stressful

**I lose another house because boyfriend bails out; but he comes back later in the story

**I am extremely sick at this point of my pregnancy with no help except for calling 911

**though very excited to learn Im having my miracle baby and a girl, Im very very sick

(By the way, sometime between July and August of 2009, I learn the gentleman who was driving the car I was in my second accident with, passes away suddenly of asthma, he was only around 23 yrs old.)

November - Im having pains and not feeling Trinity move, thats not good. I call 911 and they rush me to the hospital. Mountain View in Las Vegas. They werent very nice but I ended up staying until I gave birth.
**finally after being admitted to the hospital they locate her tiny heartbeat and all is well, for now.
**My doctor schedules a day for my c-section. Im excited, though its a month early. He says she will be fine.

December 4 - Today is my c-section, right after I am given my epidural. A woman is rushed into the room next to mines she is unconcious; and pregnant. Both baby and mother die. (my doctor was her sergeon)
**He comes in to perform my c-section, all is well, a beautiful baby girl is born on December 4th, 2006
**On December 7th (3 days later) my Trinity passes
**Suicidal thought quickly consume my mind and depression sets in

Summary

In less than 11 months I lost my apartment, 2 cars, was in 2 car accidents and witnessed a pregnant woman die right next to me, tried to kill myself, drank everyday to muffle the pain and Im still here. Find out much much more in my book about all the other details of my life that lead me to find strength to hang on and reach towards life; because it was a hard journey and I wanted to die and alcohol was my strongest vice that would have done me in if it were for God.


You can and you will make it!!! God loves you and so do I!

I Love You Deep...
