SHARE MY STORY....

Well I would like to tell you a little bit about myself. I am a 30 year old African-American female living in the Jacksonville, FL area. Within the last 2 weeks my life has turned upside down. I finally got the courage to leave an abusive relationship after 2 years trying to stay and make it work. The reason I finally decided to leave was because I was 16 weeks pregnant and started to think about my unborn child growing inside of me. I had a previous pre-term pregnancy and my little girl did not make it. God knows how bad I want to be a mother and I felt this was my chance. I wanted to protect myself and my unborn child. I decided on May 29th that this will be the last time you put your hands on me.

Then the worst happened, June 8th my water broke and I was devastated. I was scared, the doctors let me know that the outcome would not be good because I did not have much amniotic fluid left in my sack. I was released from the hospital June 9th on complete bed rest, and ordered to follow up with my doctor on Thursday. I prayed and prayed! I researched on the Internet and read some of the sad stories and also some of the happy endings. I still had hope. On Thursday, June 11th I went to my doctors appointment to be told the bad news that they would have to admit me to the hospital because infection had set in. I called my mom scared and crying because yet again the worse was happening.

I was admitted to the hospital at 2:00pm and the doctors let me know my options, I was scared. Then around 4pm with out being induced my contractions started and I knew I was in labor. My baby boy was born June 12th at 6:06am. I could not believe this was happening again. At 2pm I had to have surgery because I was not able to deliver the placenta. My mind and body was drained.

I let his father know on June 13th once I was released from the hospital and received more confirmation that he did not care about me. I felt so broken. Why me is what I kept asking myself.

I am putting this luncheon together to bring women together so we can empower each other and build relationships. We all go through different experiences in life, but our experience might help uplift the next person.

I look forward to hearing from you, #BabyLorenzoCarter and #BabyAlexandriaCorrinne will not let mommy stop helping others, even though I have suffered. My babies are looking down on me saying mommy you can do it, continuing helping others.

Beef, Okra, and Potato Kebabs

 

Beef, Okra, and Potato Kebabs

Throw these on the grill for a smoky, low-cal meal. Okra may seem like an odd veggie to put on a kebab, but it is rich in vitamin A and absorbs the savory grilled flavor perfectly.

Ingredients: Fingerling potatoes, parsley, horseradish, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, sugar, olive oil, black pepper, salt, red bell pepper, okra, shallots, sirloin steak, yellow squash, cooking spray

Calories: 338

Ingredients

• 8 fingerling potatoes, each cut in half lengthwise
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
• 1 1/2 tablespoons prepared horseradish
• 1 1/2 tablespoons whole-grain Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
• 2 teaspoons olive oil
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon salt, divided
• 1 cup (1-inch-square) cut red bell pepper
• 16 small okra pods
• 8 shallots, peeled and halved
• 1 pound boneless sirloin steak, trimmed and cut into 1-inch cubes
• 1 medium yellow squash, halved lengthwise and cut into 1/2-inch slices (about 2 cups)
• Cooking spray

Preparation

Place potatoes in a saucepan; cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes or until tender; drain. Cool.
Combine parsley and the next 6 ingredients (through black pepper) in a large bowl, stirring well; stir in 1/4 teaspoon salt. Add potatoes, bell pepper, okra, shallots, beef, and squash; toss well to coat. Cover and chill 1 hour.
Prepare grill.
Thread vegetables and beef alternately onto each of 8 (10-inch) skewers. Sprinkle kebabs evenly with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Place kebabs on grill rack coated with cooking spray; grill 10 minutes or until desired degree of doneness, turning occasionally.
