About Me

I am a fifty two year old, well adjusted mother, grandmother, daughter, and sibling of 9 and have 3 very close life long best friends. So, I have so much, I feel rich, of heart. But I am on the other hand, disabled where do I start, or maybe I just will say, I have auto immune problems since I was a kid. I have RA, stomach ulcers, had cancer, but I am doing relatively well, free of it, for now. I had Fibromyalgia, according to my physician, and a rare blood disordered caused by a doctor giving me the wrong med, it now compromises the big guns of the body, the CD3 , CD4, and 8 Surpressors, but I am not to worry, I am to be silent, because if I am not, I will not have a doctor. So, I have neuropathy, 3/4 of my pancreas removed for a growth, that is totally believe caused by the med, but who is going to challenge this, the doctor was to go before the grand jury and he skip town. To boot he was a dear friend, that I trusted with my life, and he was stealing and harming me another. Talk about a bad day, I sometimes feel so betrayed, but God will handle him. I have to take care of me, and survive. I live with diabetes now, and insulin, and pain level sometimes is so high, I hear my own voice wake me up, from the response to pain. Mostly in my joints, it is a ten tonight. So, the good things are my 10 beautiful grandchildren, my three sons, and my three daughter in law. They make me battle day to day. I even make myself go twice aweek to sit for the two younger ones that live furthest way. I refuse to give into any illness. I ain't dead yet, I want to return to classes, I was a pre-law student majoring in Forensic science, and I loved it. I just found out I had a tumor in my pancreas, and had to take medical leave right before the finals. So, please God, I plan on a return to studies. I paint statues, when I am up for it, and repair them, I love this also. I also recondition old furniture. I love to read,write, and sing. Music is my escape from all the dark places. I love the beach, and the salt air, and mostly, I love my family and friends, entertaining is a healing thing.
