About Me
I worked in financial world: big bank, big corp bonds trading branch - loved it! Unfortunately due to health issues I am on disability and enjoy my wonderful grandkids (4 and 1), great family. I have a lots of support from my family and friends, I don't know what would I do without them. I have very positive outlook on life, life is too short to be grouchy or miserable and it too beautiful to miss it! No matter what happens to me I always believe it could be worse, helps a lot to stay strong

Yes I do know how hard it was. I didn't want to have the spinal surgery but my husband and Mother N Law insisted. I was at least able to say good bye to him over the weekend. He was admitted into the hospital. My MTL brought him home to pass there. But I couldn't say my final goodbye or go to the service. My hubby is the strongest man I know. He had to deal with the passing of his father, then my spinal surgery and then me having a hear attack. He is my back bone. We are leaving to go to FLA next weekend and we are going to renew our wedding vows. I'm so excited. Dreading the 7 hour trip tho, but it will be worth it. I have asked my MNL to be my maid of honor. She is so excited too. She had never been in a Wedding before. Only hers and the mother of the groom of her 4 sons. I hope you have a GREAT weekend. Thanks for adding me as a friend. Big Hugs, Peach

I had major spinal fusion surgery with titanium, inserted BGS, lami/decompression, bone harvested from my own hip; SIJ joint was fused also. L-3,L-4,L-5 S-1. One year later I had another fusion on upper levels. All these invasions left me with dropped foot, damaged nerves in my legs,feet, colon&bladder. I was also Dx with MS, Lupus and RA.

I was dx with RA, MS and Lupus at same time. I was on Meth and did not work for me, making me really ill; Enbrel shots did not work for me either, so I had my second IV infusion of Orencia and I hope for the best! I also take Prednisone every day. I also leave in so much pain 24/7. By the time I was Dx my condition done a lots of damage to my ligaments, muscles, joints and tendons. I hope I will be able to learn something from your expreiences and share with you what I know and went through.
