About Maricela

My name is Maricela Jimenez I am 29 years old and a mother of 6 wonderful amazing children. I do have a child who is deceased. She is also one of the reasons I wanted to help people more. My pregnacy you was complicated my daughter was diagnosed with Trisomy 13 while i was pregnant and was not expected to survive but as Months had past i gave birth to a beautiful 4lb 3 oz baby girl and still wasnt expected to live as doctors kept suggesting to me. She was Referred to the n.i.c.u after a couple days I was overwelmed with the decision i had to make for my daughter. Even though I prepared my mind for what was expected to come. I gave my daughter a real fighting chance took her home on hospice. I was taught on everything i need to do as tube feeding medical supplies, medications. I gave my Daughter a chance of having so much love around her something she would have never felt being in the n.i.c.u fighting. My grandparents were also sick and I attended to them and everything they needed. I learned how to give medications And give shots as recemended when they struggled to do so. The 3 people in my life taught me that anything can happen. Some as well as others try to fight when they are sick and even though they try to tell the are leaving. They want you to understand its not that they are giving up. They are tired and wanna rest they want you to know you are loved. I was taught to have patientice when someone is sick whether its a small cold to to being diagnosed with a uncontrollable disease to having cancer. I had always studied to be a nurse but I found out with even though i have a big heart I love helping others. You always learn something new or make a new friend who may become like family. Patients cant control what happens to themselves and cant control what others cant understand. Its people like me who help fight for those who cant and thats what im willing to do be there when they need me help them as much as i can.
