    About Me

    I love partying, traveling, and trying new and exciting things!!I am a sicilian woman who enjoys being aroud good people, going to new places, and going out to eat, one of my favorites is The Salt Cellar. I enjoy going to concerts, my favorites are the best of the 70's, the good stuff! Mostly I'd just like to meet good people who are real, no phoneies here! I belive that there's never a pot to crooked, that a lid won't fit!

    Interests

    My intrests are my family ;;;;;;I don't have a hoby or anything I do well;;;; so I guess I'm open to suggestions.... I love meeting new people and singing in the car while eating cherries; I like to cook and to eat ;;;; I like to take naps nad play in the sun;;;;; I like to swim and to go places... I like movies and watching T.V. but I don't like to share the remote;;;;

      Thank you It means a lot when i hear good things like that. Sometimes I think I am crazy for going through this. And the sicker i get the harder it gets to act okay in front of relatives who constantly urge me to "stop already." They think that since my count is undetectable that i should stop and not finish the therapy. But i want to run the course if it insures me that i wont ever have to go through this again!. Honestly I find my strength from my love for life. I want to be healthy again and live the full course of my life so much that i keep putting myself through this torture. Thank you for your support. Im sure you are just as strong as I probably even stronger. In your 58 years versus my 22 i am sure you have faced your own adversities an overcome many things. Dont forget that about yourself. Our situations are different if i were you i would probably not opt to do these severe treatments. They are so physically horrible that you might just be better off not putting yourself through through that. I owe a lot of my strenght and healing to my spirutality and healing meditations. It is my faith and will that i will get better that has carried me through a lot of this. I am Puerto Rican New Yorker i was born in spanish harlem and have been in ny all my life. As you know New York woman are an especially strong breed! From one new yorker to the other stay strong!

      Thanks for your advice. It just all can seem inpossible sometimes. I did reach out to my cousin and she told me she knows what to do and will go to the socil security office and get the right paperwork then bring it to me to fill out. She said i then will have to go to the ss office to turn it in and talk with a worker. she said we will be there all day but when i walk out i will wallk out with paperwork saying a check will be on the way next month! I was so relieved to hear this and hope it works out the way she says. She says its because I only want "short term "help that i will be able to get benefits started. So we will see. Im throwing it to mother and father god and my christ consiosuness and letting them sort out the problem. I will just do what i got to do but i have faith it will work out. its amazing what faith wil do for us. Big Hugs Blessings Jaz

      I was diagnosed back in 1990's it was such a shock,I feel so alone and just found this site after years of my daughter telling me i wasn't alone. I am very excited to hear how others have been dealing with what feels like an end to who you used to be. I haven't dated since my diagnosis. and have been very sad about myself and whatever self esteem I used to have.I did meet a guy that asked me out for a weekend getaway but when I told him he shook my hand and never called again,It made me so sad.
