    About Me

    Been married for 28 years, have son, 27 who is married, daughter who is 21, and son who is 19. I was diagnosed with MS in 2001, but I have had symptoms since I was around 12. I am also 24/7 caregiver to my husband who is a disabled Viet Nam Vet who has ptsd, agent orange, fibromyalgia, diabeties, and alzheimers. So, my days are full....I just keep stumbling along to make it thru each day. Love to read, bake, watch old movies, playing cards and cribbage, taking pictures, and playing with my cats and dogs. I love it in the summer to take the boat out on the lake and just float around and daydream. I also love to go exploring in our northwoods, but have to be careful of the big creatures that lurk around.
