About Me
Im 53 years old, divorced with 2 grown children. I was diagnosed with graves disease in early Nov of 2007. My symptoms began 2 weeks before diagnosis. My eyes have been the biggest challenge. I am presently in remission with my Graves and TED. I still suffer from some muscle aches but other that I feel great. My good days far out weight my bad days.

Hi Kathy! Thanks so much for thinking of me! :) I really appreciate it. I'm hanging in there- thanks for asking. I have bad and good days and am trying to learn to take one day at a time. How are you?
I’m With You
Thanks so much Kathy!!!Same goes for you being positive for the people seeking remission!!! There tends too so much negative crap here and its really disheartening!!! At least the positive continues to outweigh the BS!!!! All the best to you!!! Hugs, Marci

Starting over at the age of 53 and afraid my life will be loveless for the rest of my life. Have since realized life is what you make it. I have a lot to offer especially to myself!
Open Breakups & Divorce
I am now divorced for the second time to the same man. I did my best to make it work but could not do it alone. I have walked away knowing I did all I could do. I bought a wonderful little house by the ocean where I live with my 2 dogs and cat. Life is good. I hope some day I will meet someone who will appreciate who I am and love me for it.
