About Me
I grew up in NY and miss it like crazy sometimes. Spent 3 years in the Pocono Mountains in PA, then moved to AL where I met my husband. We were married on St Patrick's Day of 07, and he was deployed to Iraq on July 4th. He returned the very end of ApriI 08. He recently deployed again in April 09. We currently reside in AL, and I really don't like it here, but I know it is the best place for us right now. My animals and my family are my passion, and I couldn't imagine life without them. I am a free spirit with a kind soul, and I love to help people, sometimes a little too much. I took a break from Daily Strength for a while, but after having 3 miscarriages in the past year, I'm back to find others who understand.

My mom was diagnosed with breast cancer when I was 17. She is now in remission and lives with the journey every day. She had a double mastectomy, and reconstructive surgery. We have had genetic testing, and it looks like she has the carrier gene. I always knew I would get breast cancer, so I am desperately trying to do what I can to minimize my chances...
