Her Pregnancy Had Unforeseen Consequences
Although she considers her children to be a blessing, the multiple pregnancies left her body wrecked, except she didn’t realize it until later in life. It turns out that she has four herniated discs in her lumbar spine, which has resulted in bilateral sciatica. Another unexpected side effect of her pregnancies was her peripheral neuropathy which prevents her from feeling areas of her right foot, including her toes. This causes her to spend a lot of time in bed.
