    • About Me

      I hate these things. How do I sum up who I am? I am a mother of 2 boys. I am divorcing my husband of 16 years. I suffer from depression and have lupus. I am a Chrisitian and believe that my faith in God is what has gotten me through the last year 5 years. But also I am a caring person, to a fault! I love to hear people's stories and am always amazed at similarities with my own life. I thought I was alone! LOL Please don't ask to be my friend. I only accept friends who I know personally. I am here to meet and give and receive support, and love meeting everyone.
