    • About Me

      I have a wonderful husband who is my best friend. We have 2 dogs and 2 cats they are our babies. I am very close to my family they have been very supportive during all my surgeries. I am trying to get disability due to I have had 4 failed discectomies and a fusion that has left me in worse condition and pain. I also have nueropathy in legs and arm. I am waiting on a trial for a SCS. I have had gastric bypass surgery in 2004 and now I do not absorb pain medication very well so I am in constant pain.
