About Me
I am a 48 year old RN who is happily married with two great kids. My family is addicted to animals. I have one border collie, four cats and one Egyptian Arabian horse and two granddogs that I adore. I was diagnosed in 2000, but had fibro for years before that. Despite being a nurse, I thought I could outrun it! It finally forced me to quit my job in Dec.,2001.It broke my heart because nursing was my calling and passion, but I am learning to trust the other plans that God has for my life.
