    • About Me

      Hi everyone. I'd like to tell you a little about me. I was diagnosed with COPD in May of 06. It was very severe when it came on. I had to have oxygen 24/7. Now I only use it at night. I have 2 daughters that are my life. I am divorced, and currently looking for my Prince Charming. I am grateful to Jesus everyday that I am still here with my loved ones. Thank you for reading my profile and I hope God blesses each and everyone of you.

    • Interests

      My most favorite place in the world is the ocean. My passion is to sometime in my life to live by it. I like to bowl, cook, shop, go out to eat and go to the movies. I believe the wolrd would be a very dull place without music in it.

      Good Afternoon to you in french Creek, West Virginia! I do love WV, its truly Gods Country. Years back my brother John had a little farm in Hundred WV. He didnt live there, but used it for years during the summer months after school was out.(he teaches. He retired last year after 30 years and is now off on an adventure teaching school in Bogota Columbia.) He loved it in WV, and so did I. I hope your feeling well today, are you having this Ice/Snow storm? I hope this day brings you a day of feeling good, great thoughts and breathing easy... Love you so very much, Holly

    • Close Sleep Apnea

      hi, i'm want2bwell. my mom used to watch me sleeping when i was little and told me later on in years that i would raise up off the bed trying to catch my breath. after i was diagnosed with copd my dr. wanted me to do a sleep study test and he found i quit breathing over 400 times a night. i never went back for the next test cause i don't think i can wear that mask at night. but now i think i'm going to have to try it. i am tired all the time from not sleeping at night.

    • Open Breakups & Divorce

      Ihave been separated for 2 years now. I am trying to get a divorce through the state because I can't afford a lawyer. Things keep getting messed up and I'm still waiting. There is no chance of reconciliation because he was very mentaly abusive and was a very bad alcaholic. I still talk to him on the phone from time to time, only because we have a 10 year old daughter and when he calls to talk to her he always wants her to put me on the phone. I was with him for 10 years.
