Kimberly graduated with her Master’s in Clinical Counseling. She began working as a clinician with children, families, and couples until she got seriously ill. She was able to hide her illness for quite a while until it became unbearable. She was admitted into the hospital under stat. Every part of her body that moves was dying. She was losing the ability to walk, move her hands and arms, eat solid foods, and breathe due to her diaphragm weakening. Doctors didn’t know what was attacking her brain that controls her movements. She was even admitted into the ICU to try a partial coma. Kimberly endured countless procedures to help with the chronic pain and even plasmapheresis to no avail. Nothing was helping, and time was running out. This once bright, intelligent student who achieved the top score on her Master’s exam (written portion) could no longer write a sentence. She was gifted with the ability to articulate her words gracefully and now losing her voice. She was an art teacher for many years and could no longer hold a pencil, and was told that she would never do art again. The severe suffering she endured was heartbreaking, and at that time, there was no hope.
