    About Me

    I am a thirty-four year old mother of five. I stay home with my three smallest children, who are 10, 5, and 4. I was diagnosted bipolar three years ago, just after being in a severe car crash that nearly killed me. I have been a Christian for 16 years and believe strongly in the power of prayer. I am looking for methods for treatment beyond medication, and just to have someone to talk to that really understands.

    Interests

    singing, scrapbooking and reading my Bible
