Close Tinnitus
I am 58 years old, married. I am deaf from nerve deafness in my right ear from birth. I was diagnosed last year with an inner ear disease called Meniere's. It causes balance problems, dizzyness, vertigo, nausea, tittinus,and eventually hearing loss. I have tried an herbal for Tittinus that helped me a lot. The ringing gets better with the weather. I look forward to joining you.
Close Cataracts

Open Family Issues
My Mother has always been harsh with me. I had trouble in school with my grades. I am 58 year of woman now but I learned I had 3 learning disabilities at 44 years old when my therapist had me tested for my insurance coverage. My Mom still blames me for everything that goes wrong in my life. I had no confidence until therapy.

Open Health Care Reform
My husband and I have no health insurance. We are on a pension and Social security. the medicare only pays 80%. We cannot afford the other 20%.We tried to get State, County or Federal help but our income is too high. We saw a picture of an illegal alien in the newspaper when she gave birth for free in a hospital in North Carolina. How can an illegal get free health care and I am a citizen who cannot afford healthcare. There is something wrong with this system. It must change.
