    • About Me

      Hi, I am 37, married 15 years with three kids. I have two girls, 9 and 4, and a boy, 5. I have been a Catholic Youth Minister many years. I have Wegener's Granulomatosis and was diagnosed over five years ago. I have a trach and am on steroid therapy and chemotherapy as well as a host of other meds. I am on oxygen 24/7. I had a lymphatic tumor removed about a year and a half ago as well. I've had numerous head and spine injuries and have chronic pain. I had to leave my job due to my disease. I love my wife who has extreme ADD, deprssion and anxiety. No worries though, God is good. I get to hang out with my babies all day with a lot of help from my family. Much love and prayers, strength and peace. You can also add me as a friend on My Space: www.myspace.com/jamloz13, you can find me on FaceBook too.

    • Open ADHD / ADD

      My wife has severe ADD. We work at it one day at a time. When she takes her meds like she is supposed to, things are a little bit better. There has been times when it has affected our marriage horribly. We love each other and keep on plugging along. I'm there for her. There are lots and lots and lots and lots of lists and repeating and the grace of patience helps.

      Treatments

      Concerta Not Working
      It didn't work well at all for my wife.
      Focalin Working / Worked
      It seems to be helping so far.
      Strattera Somewhat Helpful
      Seems to be helpful, but we don't have it all figured out yet. We need to find something to help more.
