ABOUT ME:

I am a disabled mom.I have Rheumatoid Arthritis, Osteoarthritis,Fibromyalgia,& many side effects conditions. I have 9 grandkids.Two of those belong to my stepson and I don't get to see them often.We lost one,Devan,to SIDS at 7 weeks old in 2005.He was my oldest son's youngest son.I don't think we will recover, but we are trying.I have 5 sisters(1 foster),3 brothers(1 foster)and my momma.Plus many, many nieces, nephews, great nieces, great nephews, and so on. We lost my daddy in 1996.It has left a huge hollow place in my heart.As you can see, my life is all about family, always will be.Since I became disabled, most of my friends have gone on with their lives and this computer has become my outlet to meet people and make friends.I have found many here. I hope to continue to do so. I love my Kids - 2 boys, 1 stepson I love my Grand-Kids - 7, 2 step-granddaughters I love my Mom - she is a spitfire and a fighter and I take after her and proud of it. I love my Dad-We lost him in 1996 and I miss him dearly. I love my Family and it is big-I have 3 brothers & 5 sisters, many nieces, nephews, etc..... I am disabled- I have Rheumatoid Arthritis. I am an Advocate for the Arthritis Foundation. I lost my youngest Grandchild (Devan) to SIDS at 7 weeks old in 2005. I am still in shock and grieving for him, this is the hardest thing in my life, losing that baby boy, watching my son and his family lose that baby boy. I despise diseases with no known cures or causes. They have invaded my life. I despise being disabled. Thank Goodness for faith, if I didn't have any, I do not believe I could survive this torture. My worry is that my children and family won't survive it. I can see how much it is changing them. I must pray every day that they find the faith to understand why God has given me another health burden, one that I cannot seem to fight hard enough to stay in front of where they cannot see. I guess maybe they have a test here too, after being taken care of by me, how do they take care of themselves without me, without my help now? Pray, pray hard. Deal with it in the meantime. Love and Prayers to one and all. Huggs Rebecca
