    About Me

    I'm a wife and mum of three beautiful children and a wonderful husband. My life is full. I have many passions, music being the main one. I love to sing. I love to cook and am trying to rediscover these after filling my days with things that aren't important. I love people but am lonely in a new country. i moved here to Auz 4 years ago from New Zealand. I have just come back from a huge trip away to Europe for Almost 2 months helping my brother who is dealing with Non Hodgkins lymphoma, he teaches me to live one day at a time and am very thankful to be home. I had the wonderful privilege of seeing my favourite city - Paris. It is now my new passion. At the end of the year I am planning a trip back with my loved one.

      From alzie2 Today

      Thanks for your continuing support. In fact you are very intuned with my goings on in life. When you contact me and are concerned you are right on the ball. I am usually in the mix of gambling, feeling up and down and you seem to know! It is really weird but great because I find it hard to get away with any nonsense without being honest to you. Keep on keeping on. Great to have you around xx Alison

    • Close Asperger Syndrome

      My Beautiul , clever 15 year old boy is affected by Aspergers Syndrome. He was first diagnosed at 6 after being asked by his teacher to "find out what was wrong with him" - the diagnosis was instant. HIs best therapy has been growing up with his siblings especially his brother who is 18 months younger than him, they are best friends. I don't always understand him but love him to pieces, he is our mad professor.
