Greetings to ALL... I'm 54 and Disabled. I have 3 sons ~ not a day goes by where I find another grey hair just by thinking of them! Married for 23 years; most of it was abusive as he learned to love alcohol & drugs more. "Live" with many health problems but now understanding by living alone...I feel a lot better than previous years!

Diagnosed with Diabetes 12 years ago. I've been put on & have tried every medication for this disease. Doctors keep changing my doses & type. I am Insulin Resistant but now taking 80 units a day of Lantus; 50 units 3x day of Novolog & 500mg. Glucophage 3x day. My sugar levels are always in the high 200's and higher.
Depression is one of many maladies I have. I'm early stages Leukemia, Diabetic, Chronic pain after ten surgeries to my back & neck. Had my spleen removed for no good reason; the doc couldn't figure out my blood levels...so took the spleen leaving me with poor immune system, I have so much nerve damage & numbness. Can barely walk
I've had ten surgeries to my Lumbar and Cervical Spine. The Neurosurgeon did a "Ooops" with the first surgery leaving me worse and in need of more surgeries. I suffer from chronic pain from head to toe.
My youngest son,25, is currently in Iraq..his second tour. He has 2 Purple Hearts from injuries rec'd in battle. He has a 90% hearing loss & much schrapnal (sp?) in his leg. The damage to his ears has been causing and will continue to cause problems such as vision loss, gait & balance disturbances and jaw problems...and he wanted to go back as he will not consider any of his injuries a failure. He loves his Country & has strong ethics. I am so very proud of him and miss him so much!
Many years left undiagnosed. Had a splenectomy because of dangerously low platelets. Infusions, transfusion & finally found to be acute Leukemia.
My 28 year old son was recently sentenced to Prison for 5-20 years. No good behavior will let him out sooner; it must be FIVE years before he can ask for Parole.
Dated Jekyll ~ married Hyde is best to explain 23 years of pure agony. Learned the truth after I married him and became his personal property. Physical & Mental Abuse ~ we all have an ugly story to tell. But to still be living in the agony...something is wrong with this picture.
I would like to give advise when I think it's pliable; I'm a member of many communities already and have friends who ask for advise too.
Mother of 3 sons. The oldest is in Prison for his alcohol & drug abuse. Luke is back in jail because of the alcohol & drugs. My youngest in Army; but drinks heavily still.
