Hello! I had a wonderful life until I contracted Fibromyalgia. I am a beautiful, warm. kind-hearted woman seeking shelter from the storms of life. I try to live each day to the fullest, but there are days when I am so very sick I feel as if I want to die. It takes me awhile to wake up. I pray when I am fully awake and mostly for others. I am funny and have a sense of humor. When I am sick, I fake that I feel good. Deep inside, I just want to drop over dead. I have many pets. They sense when I am sick and stay close at my side. It has become impossible for me to work in a public setting. Everytime I do, I become sick and must sleep alot. I used to be so healthy and vibrant. It has been said, "When you have your health, you have everything." I can really relate to that now. I have two beautiful teen-aged daughters whom I love dearly. They live with their dad. I am too sick to care for them. Caring for myself is a full-time job. I love life but don't love the physical state that I am in. The bills are piling high and that stresses me. I have to have minimal stress or my bed is where I stay. I am so destitute, that I cannot afford medical care. So I eat fairly healthy and rest as often as possible. Some days, the joint pain is excrutiating. Stretching does help, but the pain is always there. I live in a country environment. I used to love the sun, but if I stay out in it too long, I become sick. Then I have to sleep for half of the day. I was so active and healthy. When I am feeling good, I have a tendency to over-exert myself. I love music, reading, my pets, and the people I know and meet. This is who I am and what I am about! Thank you for reading about me!! May God bless you!!!
