    • About Me

      I am finally diagnosed with Behcet's after a long and painful year. I have been very depressed to have gone from an active single woman to one who barely makes it through work to climb into bed. I have 2 daughters, my youngest is 12. I hope to get back to some of my passions in the future, including school, travel, and roller coasters!
