ABOUT ME:

I am 40 years old and have been married to my high school sweet heart for 19 years. I have a daughter Tiffany who is 18, A son Robert who is 16 and a 9 mth. old baby girl Breanna. I feel very blessed to have my family even though we are all having a hard time adjusting to my changing health issues. We are all missing the woman who did the fun things without having to schedule her life around pain. I do believe that God has a reason for all things and that I may be going through this to become a stronger christian. I have alot of feeling of failure and guilt for being only 40 and disabled and having to stay in the hospital several times a year while my husband has to care for the kids, especially our new baby girl. I am currently trying to surround myself with others who know how I feel and can relate to my issues. I am determined to become more productive and lead a more normal life whatever normal is. I no longer want to be the woman who hides herself at home and rolled around in self pity, that person is pathetic and missing out on her family. I am going to make myself aware that there are others worse off than me and still find happiness. My goal for this year is to find some middle ground between acceptance of my disease and leading a happy productive life. I have already lost three years to this demon called pain and now I am declaring I want my life back. I want my family to look back and say I made them happy and not that I ruined everything!!
