Beronica Ard’s story

March 6, 2014

My story begins in 1999 I was 19 years old. I took a 10 hour family trip and when we got there my butt was soar and there was a bump on the top of my butt crack. Made the best of the vacation and drove back home.

About one week later I was in the local E.R. It was soooooooo pain full I wanted to die.that was the first time I learned the words cut and pack wow I thought. It went away I was so happy and went about my life until 2005 I was eight months pregnant yes I am a women. That was the worst not only was it back with vengeance but I was fully pregnant. I had to go back to the local E.R. And I knew what they where going to do so I tried to stay calm for my baby another cut and pack.my baby was born and life got back to normal thank god.

I know now how thankful I am for good health. In 2014 it came back agin but this time it had two red BIG bumps on both sides I del Ed to my knees and thought what am I going to do I live on a off the grid ranch and all the animals need me and my daughter needs me my husband needs me what am I going to DO!!!!

So I went back to the Dr and they cut and packed it agin absolutely torture. That was it I started studying and after a long hard thought I found D.R. Bascom in Springfield O.R. I was so scared and happy all at the same time I had a closed cleft lift on 3/4/2014 and I am so happy not much pain and I am back on my feet today 3/6/2014 I am so glad I made this decision after 13 years of living with it.

There was answer for me.
