About Me
I developed Lupus from Epbstein Barr virus. I have lots of auto immune illnesses; the whole package deal!! I live in a sober house. I have struggled with alcoholism for fifteen years. I am doing well now and stick close to God. I do not dwell on my past. I learned so much and have been able to help others. Lupus has brought pain, I try not to take opiates. Sometimes in a flare I have to have hydrocodone but, I have another person hold onto it and administer the correct dosage.
Interests
writing and sleeping!

I am happy to be relieved from that flair without going to the hospital. I wish the docs were not so paranoid about meds and send you to pain clinics …

Hugbook
Prayer
May God be with you, may he help you when you feel tired and helpless.
Hug
Yes, my mother passed away in August of 2007. We made sure she had hospice care when we were not there, but I had my father and 3 sistesr and a aunt to help, but it can be quite emotional. I made sure I was with her as was the rest of the family when she passed away in our home. I know what you are going through, it is rough, but you will be glad you were there for her once she is in Gods hands! God Bless, Tim
Prayer
Been there.........all I can say is God Bless.
Prayer
As you have made a step to work on your healing, know ye that your father God who wish all things go well with you. Will let a miracle happen for you. (3 John 2) God bleess you
Hug
