You would never know I was ill or in extreme pain by looking at me. I dislike being sick, and it really bothers me when I have to cancel plans because I am not feeling well on that particular day.

Please visit IDA.

If anyone is reading my blog, please go to IDA  Invisible Disabilities Assoc and read up on what hidden disabilities is all about.   Read about Matt and what this poor man is going through.  There are MANY more but it is an EYE OPENER.  I have not done my video yet but plan to.  I want to tell my story.  I want people to understand what we deal with 24/7.   Read about the vets coming home from war.  Take ONE day out of your week and just go through this website.

My mother passed away in 1997 and she had both legs amputated and two open heart surgeries,  She died at 66.  Too young!   She had vascular disease.

I have a grandson whose 17 yrs old and was not suppose to make it to his 5th birthday.  He got Bacterial Meningitis back in Norfolk, VA where my daughter's husband was stationed aboard a nuclear sub.  They kept sending my grandson home with a fever.  He was just 3 mos old.  At the time, there was an outbreak of Bacterial Meningitis.   Chris went into cardiac arrest and only responds to stimulation today.   He has a feeding tube, No spleen, and is in a wheelchair.  It's HEARTBREAKING.  He has had several bouts of pneumonia and has come close to death again.  Someone is watching over him.  He is a MIRACLE.   I am an advocate for BOTH invisible and visible disabilities.

Look at the work that Wayne and Sherri Connell are doing along with their Board Members.  It is astounding.   You must visit IDA.   Thank you SO much.
