    • About Me

      I am grateful for my life. It is great despite the numerous over-the-top challenges ~ mentally, physically and emotionally since childhood. I get through them as best I can and as my brother says, I am like a phoenix. I have ambitions and dreams that I am in the process of achieving and I am determined to keep going. I hope to help others with my experiences.

      From ms3kitty February 4

      Oh my poor girl. I am so sorry about your kitty. My grand-cat, Clive. He has been very strong and brave. And so have you. He'll be your new guardian angel. He'll be out of discomfort. Just know that you're the best cat mommy in the universe and did all you could to help him physically and emotionally. I'm praying for you to be strong and accept his departure willingly and it's the ultimate show of love you can give. I love you all. Momma

    • Open Brain Injury

      I was attacked and beaten in the head with a rock 5x 3 yrs ago. I was fortunate to be alive...I had MTBI. At first, I had word finding difficulty,confusion, fatigue, forgot how to sew (I am a pro), and migraines/brain pain every day for over a year. Eventually, I got better. Now, my right leg drags behind me once in a while and I reverse letters in words. When I get migraines.. they are hard to get rid of. I am grateful, however that it was not worse.
