16 People Shared Photos That Split Their Lives Into “Before” and “After”

Certain events can result in major changes in our lives, but only a few of us manage to capture these moments on camera. However, there are people out there who’ve survived serious diseases, surgeries, and breakups with their loved ones, yet were able to document the most important transformations in their lives.

We at Bright Side know well how hard it is to publicly share our most intimate feelings and we applaud each and every person who went for it.

1. “The photo was taken right after I found out that I had Lyme disease. I was going to drop out of high school, but my friends helped me and kept me going through the last months before our graduation.”

2. “There had been someone spreading rumors about my injuries being lies at the my university. I had just been told by the doctors that, after a year of rehab, that my legs worked normally again.”

You are truly feeling the Force at this moment! Congrats on all your blood, sweat, and tears x

3. “I fell into depression. This dog changed my life 2 years ago.”

4. “My wife had just given birth to our twins in the hospital. They were born prematurely. Fortunately, everything went well.”

Imagine being in this situation and your first instinct is to take a selfie. What an idiot.

5. “I had just moved to New York City. I moved out of the country that I grew up in, I was $50,000 in debt, with exactly ZERO savings in my account. I was on the verge of becoming homeless.”

6. “Taking my first steps after a spinal fusion. This was the moment my life changed completely.”

7. “I gave birth to my first child. Isn’t it supposed to be the happiest time in your life? However, two weeks later I found out that my boyfriend, her father, was cheating on me. I left one month after, while he was at work.”

You have ~80kg less of dead weight to drag about and clean up after. Your child is beautiful!

9. “My friend recently competed in a film festival. This is the moment they announced his film had won.”

10. “My hair was falling out, my face was swollen. I never felt good and I was always hungry. Now I’m finally healthy, happy, and thriving!”

11. “I had just won a silver medal in a Karate State-Level Championship. I started to feel an unbearable pain in my back due to my heavy training and stayed in bed for the 2 weeks. I keep this photo as a reminder to never forget about my health.”

Do you have photos of the very moment when your life changed dramatically?
