    About Me

    I am married to a funny, sweet, supportive man for two years now. I love to place my feet in the sand. One day we want to live near a beach. I was a Speech Therapist, Behavior Therapist and taught children dx with Autism for twelve years. I love my family and we are very close. I struggle with this illness everyday. I hear voices/echos and black out at times.
