Clean Living

It’s almost been 2 months since we evacuated a life threatening place.

One of My Guardian Angels

Dr. Divekar. The immunologist who originally diagnosed me with CVID after I was consistently ignored by UC Health. He was the one that finished what UC Health started. He was the one who wrote the need for IVIg letter. To only be ignored by UC Health, and told “I’m just dehydrated”. Finding Dr. Sarid was… Continue reading One of My Guardian Angels
