    • About Me

      I have in the past year been diagnosed with Lupus and Celiac Sprue. I'm trying to make a lot of lifestyle changes, learn about alternative and herbal remedies and stay positive. Aside from the interests I listed, I'm also an activist for lots of worthy causes, including animal welfare, fair-trade, organic and locally produced foods, green living, religious freedom/tolerance and many others.

    • Open Pet Bereavement
