    • About Me

      HOME is where your story begins... I am a 41 year single old mother of 4, 3 grown sons who are on their own, Two away at college and one in the Navy and I have one beautiful full of life 5 year old little girl. I have suffered with major depression for 20 years and have been diagnosed with mania since my daughters birth. I have fibamyalgia for three years now, so I suffer with the pain. This year I have developed thyroid problems and had 1/2 my thyroid removed due to nodules. Now i have hypothyroidism and have just been diagnoses with adrenal insuffiency. I just went back to work after being on disability for 7 years for depression, its been a uphill climb. But I try to press through one day at a time. I am a survivor of many a abuse and have chose a life without any negative people to influence my decisions. It may get a bit lonely , but it is better to be lonely than to be in bad company.

      You feel like a candle in a hurricane

      Just like a picture in a broken frame

      Alone and helpless, like you’ve lost you’re fight

      But …
