So you want to know more about me. Well, I have to admit, I am complex but up front if that makes any sense. I have a lot going on in my life.
I am a mom to 2 kids, married to a great guy. One small problem- all four of us have chronic, late stage Lyme disease. Let me tell you, it is not fun being the care taker of an entire family who is chronically ill- especially since I am one of them.
I try to keep my sense of humor in spite of it all. I have a wonderful online Family at Oscraps.com who keep my going. And I have a Lyme Support group at Healingwell.com
I love in NJ- home to bears and – you guessed it- ticks. The ticks scare me way more than the bears do.
I tend to be pretty outspoken on issues that mean a lot to me, so be prepared to hear rants as we get closer to the General Election.
Please leave comments- I love to hear what other people think whether it is in agreement or not!

Hey there I have Lyme as well, chronic late stages, I wanted to introduce myself and say you seem to be such a lovely person. I’m so sorry to hear how all four members of you family are sick. My thoughts and prayers are with you and would love to chat and share ideas some time. Have a good nite:-)

so sorry to hear about your family’s illness. you must be one hell of a strong woman. i was tested for lyme desease a fwe years back but i was diagnosed with fibromyalgia. i know it isn’t half as bad as your illness but i too have really bad days. rain, menstral cycle, forget about it. i can’t move. i was thinking about trying to go on disability but then my dh had a heart attack and almost died. all his organs were failing. etc. ugh! jan. was the month from hell. 2008 is the year from hell. he had to have 7 of his toes removed because his circulation was so bad. he is still out of work. enough about me. i don’t know you but i will say prayers for you and your family. you seem like such a beautful person and one tuff momma. best of luck and don’t stop… keep on living.. tears in my eyes… keep strong…
