    • About Me

      My name is Nicole, but I like to be called Nikki :) Im 24 years old and recently got engaged my fiance of 5 years.I have a 5 year old step-daughter who I have enjoyed helping raise. I currently have 3 associate degrees and am hoping to continue my education. I enjoy reading and being with my family. I also have a very supportive and loving family that has been helping me with my illness. I have been dealing with Chronic Pancreatitis my entire life. Recently, it has been bad and caused me to not to work or go to school which has bummed me out :( Over the years, I have hid my pain and pushed to go to school to continue my education and working as a lead teacher with young children, now I cant anymore, it hurts more than ever.I am looking to talk to others dealing with chronic pain to give me some advice on how to manage it. I just want to stop feeling depressed about having to sit at home and feel helpless.
