Doing the Research…

Neurologist I was seeing told me, if you write the book, have a doctor review it… That was 2019 or 20… Didn’t get why then, but now I do…

I went to him purely for answer’s… No medications, no treatment, no diagnosis… I thought I had all those answers and I had questions…

He answered those questions and helped me to understand the injuries I had lived with since I was a year old and Freda gave me a central spinal cord injury… From that point on, it was abuse after abuse and by the time I was 8 years old…

I had compartment syndrome in all my limbs, I had numerous concusions and brain trauma, I had nerve damage, muscle damage and I had spinal cord damage… and by the time the beating at 8 happened, death was the only thing left and it rejected me…

Why the write???…

I saw physical therapist on Hawaii and those kids taught me what I do now that keeps me mobile and out of a wheel chair and they also helped me understand future tests that happened in Washington, the final piece of the puzzle…

I knew I had compartment syndrome in my legs by the surgery done at El Paso VA and they over dosed me on anesthesia and caused a vaso thing to happen and put my still healing brain into a fog… I didn’t go back for another surgery…

But I didn’t know I had it in my arms until we got to Washington and the VA had me tested in Wenatchee and the guy says muscle damage in my right arm and I am like how and here we are… with the memory restored and now I know, Freda and the TV interview beating at 5 years old…

I was wrote up in the Air Force for throwing insturments when I was a dental tech and as I stood there and got yelled at by Dr. Jacobs, I am thinking, what just happened, I couldn’t hold onto those said insturments and my hand jerked and they went flying…

It wasn’t long after that, I pretty much quit wearing makeup… I got tired of stabbing myself in the eye with mascara!!! I don’t wear any to this day…

The signs were there, the professionalism wasn’t and I should have met a medical board according to my records and I don’t even want to think how fucked up that would have been…

It took me, putting it all together and lying to get a MRI of the brain, to prove what I had said since I went active duty…

Anyway… The compartment syndrome symptoms are now impacting daily life and it is getting hard for me to hold on to lots of anything…

I work at the little exercises those kids taught me and do what I need to do and hope, I don’t ever need someone to wipe my, well you know?!…

I remember…

  1. The raw honesty here is unbelievable. Turning such intense physical trauma and survival into words takes so much strength, and the clarity you write with is incredible. I’ve been trying to capture that kind of unfiltered truth in my own work lately, so reading this really struck a chord with me.

    1. Thank you for your kindness… I write how I think… you will find your strength in a moment you least expect and when you do, run with it, do not hold back or you cheat yourself…

About Me

I am Maggi, given that name on Okinawa during the Vietnam war by a group of Marines in transit at Naha AFB… At 17 years old I didn’t know I was missing memory… I had lost the first 17 years of life and was about to embark on a journey of intrigue, murder, rape, military coverup and live a life, most only dream about… Will I ever remember my youth or will I always walk in shadow not knowing who I was…

This is my story of survival…
