About Me

Hi, my name is Sue. I've had RA since May '08. I have it, at this time in my hands, which is getting me down. I take methotrexate, plaquenil, sulindac, folic acid and just recently started enbrel. I'm a single mom with 4 kids. Been divorced for 16yrs. My oldest daughter is married and lives in North Carolina. My oldest son is in the air-force, stationed in Las Vegas. My youngest daughter is working hard, going to school and has given me a beautiful granddaughter. And my youngest son is a junior in high school. They've kept me pretty busy for a while, and now that they're almost grown i find myself looking for new things to do. I work in a local hospital on the night shift as an RN in labor and delivery. I love it. Greatest gift in life is to see a new life come into this world. I'm also a county SANE nurse, helping women in crisis. RA has made my life alittle tougher, but its not the end of me. I still have alot more to give.
