    About Me

    I am happily married with two children 13 and 19. Work part time. I suffer from actute anxiety, depression, asthma and the awful IBS. I have had years of numerous treatments for pre-cancerous cells resulting in leep excision. Have to keep on top of things in that department. I try to help myself but sometimes it does get me down. I love watching my son play football and I am always on the touchline. I am a loyal and honest person and have a sense of humour which helps me cope with my illnesses. I dont like being taken advantage of or being made a fool of. We have had so many bereavements in the last 12 months it is starting to get to me. I tend to put a front on things until they get too much and then I break down.

    Interests

    Reading, watching my son play football, quizzes and being a mum and wife !!! love speaking to people and sharing their ups and downs. I am a good friend
