Stella really began her career at age 13. An accomplished swimmer, she trained under the top Olympic coaches and swimmers of the United States swim team. Stella competed at the Junior Olympic and National levels. After being diagnosed as severely anemic, with Ferritin (a protein that stores Iron in the tissues) levels well below the normal, she began to suffer from debilitating performances at some of the top United States National swim meets. After seeking medical attention, the problem did not change; in fact, it got worse. The anemia affected Stella physiologically and psychologically. After a year of prescriptions for artificial hormones and numerous doctors' evaluations, Stella's mother sought other options.
