About Me

HI! I found this website thru my sissy who has been on here for awhile. I admire her greatly for everything that she is going through right now and has gone through for her whole life. I thought I had alot of health and personal problems until i met her in 2001-2002. She was and is my angel. :-) She has always been there for me when I needed her and has recently shown me that unconditional love does exist in this world especially recently with her hubby going to Iraq. My own story just pales in comparison when you look at it I guess. I have Endometriosis and it has ruled my life since I was a child or 'dandalion' like mama used to call me. She has had it FOREVER. Oprah wanted to meet her back in the day before endo was even known on the map and they were creating the ENDO association. I feel like the walking book sometimes on endo, giving speeches at 15 in high school about it. {blushes} Anyway, I got fibro sometime in my twenties when i realized that i could sleep like no ones business. I have had rosacea all my life and people are ALWAYS asking me and testing me for lupus, etc. I was born with hip dysplasia which caused my scoliosis and lead to chronic pain and back pain. PHEW! In the middle of all of this I grew up with parents that fought all the time, hated each other, a mother who was crazy in menopause in her 30's, and ADHD. It was great. But I turned out ok. Put myself through school, survived marriage number one to a drug addicted leech and am now learning to trust again (thanks sissy and hubby) and have found family through my second husband. I have a beautiful Goddaughter that i love to death. I learned that we have these bad experiences for a reason and mine have been to help people and to meet new people. It has made me the person I am today. (Thank Goodness) If I missed anything, please ask, i love to talk. (if i am not sleeping) HUGS!!
