HI GROUP,

THANK YOU FOR THE WELCOME TO THE GROUP. I HAVE BEEN AWAY FOR MOST OF

THE SUMMER AND HAVE NOT KEPT UP ON WHATS GOING ON IN THE CFIDS WORLD.

I AM 47 YEARS OLD AND WAS DX'ED WITH THIS DD IN 1993. I HAVE GONE

THROUGH ALOT, AS I GUESS WE ALL HAVE. I AM MARRIED TO A WONDER MAN THAT

UNDERSTANDS AND HELPS ME WITH MY ILLNESS....I AM VERY THANKFUL TO HAVE

FOUND A GOOD MAN TO HELP ME. I HAVE BEEN IMPROVING OVER THE LAST FEW

YEARS WITH HELP FROM A GOOD DOC IN CANADA....I NOW LIVE ON THE CANADIAN

BORDER. I MOVED HERE AFTER LOSING MY JOB AND I COULDN'T AFFORD TO LIVE

WHERE I WAS BEFORE. SOCIAL SECURITY IS VERY LIMITED!!!! I GREW UP JUST

OUTSIDE OF MANHATTAN AND WORKED IN THE AREA. THE EVENTS OF THE LAST

WEEK HAVE HIT CLOSE TO HOME FOR ME.....

WELL ENOUGH ABOUT ME, I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO MEETING AND GETTING TO KNOW

ALL OF YOU.
