Hi ,

Glad you joined us. All our Members have different things wrong with them, we

can tell our illnesses. You can 'Vent', were here to laugh or cry with you, we

KNOW your Pain. We can't give out Medical information, I think that's a rule,

but were hear to listen to you.

Many of us have been to many Dr's, had every 'test' in the book only to hear, 'I

can't find anything wrong with you'. We have all had that scared & hopeless

feelling, we, with our untrained eye, can see that 'Vertebrae' in our back are

not straight or the space between them, are all different. Why and what is

growing out of my upper back, we're in pain 24/7, laying in bed 'rolling around'

crying because of pain. We can't care for our kids, house, work, or even care

for ourselves, isn't happening. THEN WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?

Now this is 'Me'. I've been in pain since I was 8 yrs old, Mom never gave me a

'break', I was told 'Just suck it up'. My parent's divorced when I was 9-10, Mom

always worked, when I was 7, Mom slowly started making me 'the Mom', by 9,

everything was on my shoulders. Caring for my brother, sister, the house, making

sure the bills were payed started when I was 11. There's more but why cry on

your shoulder's. I too was 29, with 3 kids, had the 'Kool-Aid' house, worked

part time, did Animal Rescue, which I still do. Maybe I was 'Running' from my

pain, by keeping busy?

I should know more about 'Diabetes', my Grandmother had it, lost part of her

leg, my Step-Dad & 'half-sister' have it, an Aunt died in childbirth cause of

it. I don't know how to spell what it's called, when you get 'Diabetes' when

your 8-9 months pregnant, my neighbor, 'Ineke' got it with her last 4 kids.

, I'll be your 'worry buddy', my e-mail is up there, e-mail me any time,

give me your e-mail, if you feel comfortable leave me your phone number. I can

call you when you say, I have that deal with the phone company no one bother's

with my e-mail, it's nothing sometimes it puts even me asleep, or I'll give you

mine. Keep posting with us, we care about our Members, always willing to help

any and all with whatever they need.

Love ya, Pegi XXOO
