About Me
Recently had big fall in November 2007 and no longer working. Love all animals. I have one son, one husband, 4 horses, 1 burro, 2 cats, and 5 dogs. I love yard work and getting my hands dirty with my flowers. In the winter I knit. I have been diagnosed with CHF at 45, arthritis at 28, asthama since birth, allergies, hypertension at 43, and I love life!!!!!! I'm still hoping to still ride my beloved horses when my back gets better. I feel so alive while riding in the woods with the wonder of Nature and God all around me.

Close Arthritis
I was 28 before anyone with finally diagnose my arthritis with "I think you have arthritis,but you are too young for that." I'm now 53 having had 19 injections, 3 surgeries including replacement on the left knee and 9 injections, 2 surgeries, including replacement on the right knee. I have a 54% lordotic curve of my spine with arthiritis. On November 11,2007 I fell off a spillway at a lake around 15 feet and had 3 burst fractures in my thoracic spine.
