    • About Me

      Life is good right now. I am pregnant with my first child, in a committed relationship and am doing well with both my meds and the drug problem; clean and sober for awhile. Because my life tends to play out like a rollercoaster ride, I am eternally grateful to be in the position I'm in today. I have good friends, a good family and a man who supports me. I can't complain.

    • Interests

      I love animals. Anything having to do with them. This includes my four fur monsters, who are like my own children. I have become very interested in different charities and what classes of people/animals they represent. I enjoy politics, reading and the theater. And through attending AA meetings, I've become interested in how to become a stronger, centered person using my higher power as a guide.

      That's a very small percentage though. What med is it? My doc said if I got preggers he may keep me on a small amount of all my meds so I don't end up back in the hospital. He said the risk of it harming the baby was like 3%. It's scary but we've gotta take care of ourselves too. Send me your number. Just text it to me if you still have mine. Or send it to me on here. xoxo

      From KandiShell September 24

      YAY!! I'm so happy you are doing soooo well. I know it's been a tough road for you and you pulled through like a champ! I'm doing great. My meds are working great but unfortunately I can't get off of them to conceive another child. I tried twice to get off my meds to get preggers and couldn't do it. Oh well. We are planning to adopt if that's our only option. Did you get off your meds to get preggers? Sorry if Im being nosey. I just want to know if I have another option or not. It's so good hearing from you! Is your number still the same? I still have it in my phone. if it's changed then send me your new number so we can text while Im bored at work. LOL
