Do you want to learn more about The AB Experience Blog and Podcast? Well you have come to the right place. I’ve been active in my community for 20 plus years as a mentor, leader and creator for social advocacy content. I create content for my small business ventures, The Albinism Alliance Group (TAAG) and for the albinism (AB) community. With the support of family, friends and members of The Albinism Alliance Group (TAAG) “The Experience” was initially a magazine concept, for print; Established in 2005. In 2013 it was transitioned into a webmag. Since then to online print publication has transitioned into a blog. To add an additional component to the communications efforts website will also start featuring a podcast. This was decided in 2020 during Covid19 outbreak.
I am dedicated to bringing interesting content and making a difference, everywhere. However, unexpected health issues with kidney failure, congestive heart failure has delayed delivery of content. Approximately 12 weeks of content is titled, outlined and ready to be created with the shows guests. However, I was not able to get it recorded and aired by the original time frame anticipated. for The AB Experience. In 2023 complications with peritonitis lowered clearance with Peritoneal Dialysis (PD) and created a toxicity in my kidneys, that nearly killed me. Through faith and prayer I’m completing health recovery, with a positive mindset.
I have chosen to share my experience publicly because in the past it was something I would have never considered, due to the personal nature of things. In the wake developing and overcoming multiple obstacles during health recovery, I shared my experience to celebrate the true,. Beauty of Albinism .I believe true beauty is felt not seen. Because of this i received a large outpour of support that helped me tremendously and i want to repay that kindness by continuing to add valuable tools to the albinism community. This creates momentum for others who want to be leaders and are developing other special interest projects that, support the AB community. I look forward to open conversation with them on the show so that we can all watch their growth and stride to be the change they want to see.
Previously I shared my work from a professional and advocacy direction, but felt I protected my personal life by ONLY mentioning the positives. I honestly felt that NOT sharing my trails helped keep me from bringing darkness over other peoples positives. So, I fight my battles in private. I’ve been diabetic since i was eight teen. Started medication for it at 21. I will be 48 years old this coming birthday and I’ve been fighting this battle for a very long time. Now that im blessed to do more with medical treatments such as dialysis three times a week, I will continue working toward getting a kidney transplant to improve my quality of life.
Breaking my silence, even though it may have been my final hour … allowed people who learned of my struggles to learn more about me, uplift me in prayer and this helped renew my faith. I received so much positive feedback that I was able to pull through very dyer circumstances. Since Feb. 6, 2023 I continue to manage changes in my life and as of April 2024, I no longer have congestive heart failure and my heart is strong and i no longer have the fluid adding pressure. I’m no longer needing oxygen continuously, either. All of my ventricles and arteries have been checked and tested, They are well and have no damage. My blood pressure is managed and blood glucose as well. Its a wonderful thing to see continued progress. in my life and this will enable me to get the show up and running later this year. So thank you for all of your support and I look forward to creating a great new asset for the albinism community, with this audio podcast. Its going to be made available here, on apple and google play.
Sincerely
