About Me

Im a 42 year old mother of 2. Both of my children are in college now. Im happily married to a wonderful man. I currently live in the country and have 4 horses. I work in a local manufacturing company. Ive been employed there for the past 16 years. Due to the time I have spent on this job, I now have several disabling problems, ranging from several ruptured disc in my back and the most recent, COPD and CHF, Chronic pneumonia and Bronchitis. I have alot of problems with my breathing. I tend to spend alot of my time in the Hospital because oral anitbiotics do not work for me. I also was diagnosed with the first stages of Parkinsons disease last year, hands, My Hands tremor, shake and spasm all the time,, Its so aggrivating and embarrassing when im in the public and my arm draws up like Im having a stroke. Its very painful. But I cant qualify for disabity. I just dont understand. I ride horses to help my muscles and it honestly does help.
