From Pain to Purpose The Exodus by Rosanne Reid

The test was positive! Not planned! Not Now!

At this point I was under a lot of pressure working on this book and planning the re-launch of my business. I was not worried about it before because whenever I am heavily stressed this happens to me, I miss my menses for 2-3 months. Not being sure what was wrong, but having a suspicion I asked him get a pregnancy test because I had noticed that the “red lady” was missing for about 2 months and I had been feeling extremely fatigued. I called my husband to let him know that something was wrong with me and I couldn’t walk.

I collapsed back onto the bed, I couldn’t walk. Continuing to get off the bed thinking that possibly my sleeping position had caused my legs to be cramped, I stood up, noticed that there was not much feeling in the legs and they gave way. I sat up in the bed noticing that my legs felt a bit funny with excruciating pain searing from my lower back to my legs. Just before my book's final manuscript was sent to publishing, the pre-release campaign for the book had already been launched, at 6 weeks before official release, I awoke one morning and tried to get up out of bed and my legs were not functioning. This is what happens when you work on your dream despite the fact that all hell is breaking loose in your life! Here’s my story of the Pain, the Process and Success of creating “ My Memoir”. Winners are those who persevere, shed unnecessary baggage, stand strong in commitment, integrity and truth pushing relentlessly towards the achievement of “ The Dream”. The difference between those who achieve and sip the sweet cup of success and those who don’t is the decisions they make despite all the pain and challenges. “GIVE UP! QUIT! The niggling words that force themselves into your psychic trying to trick you into giving up on your dream when life happens just when you are about to make a big break in your life. “Lies, lies and more lies! Every dream is possible, I will succeed!”
