My name is Amanda Kirton and I survived a hemorrhagic stroke. "What is a hemorrhagic stroke?", you ask. My brain was filling up with blood. I was fortunate to be in Georgetown's Hospital when it happened. I came to the hospital complaining of stomach pain but it turns out I had a stroke instead. Georgetown Hospital immediately transferred me to St. Davids Main. I had all the bells and whistles. Too bad I didn't wake up for it. I will never forget July 26, 2017. The beginning of my new life.

My Stepdaughter Turns 20 Today!
I am so very proud of Gillian. But this blog isn’t about
her, it’s about me. Am I a good stepmother, did I give her good advice, did she
like me? Step parenting is different than parenting and being a step parent
without any children of your own is not easy. I couldn’t tell you how many
times I cried on Walters shoulder over the years.
