    • About Me

      I am a mom to 2 children, a son 29 years old, and a daughter 22 years old. They both still live at home. My daughter came back last fall after her Navy husband beat her in front of my 2 year old granddaughter. My husband is wonderful and we have been married for 30 years. I work in a school working with special needs children. I have suffered with depression practically all my life, but was diagnosed with bipolar disorder after being hospitalized last winter after a major depression crisis.
