| A LITTLE MORE ABOUT ME! |
| Ever wonder why things happen? they say everything happens for a reason but what the hell are the reasons. I mean honestly it would be so much easier if you knew why things happened instead of waiting to find out. And then some things don't seem to have a reason. So do only some things happen for a reason? And if thats the case how do we know which is which? I'd say life should come with an instruction manual but seriously who would read it before something went wrong, and by then it's too late. Oh well I guess we'll never know. Better forget the whole thing and just keep on trucking. What's meant to be will be. |

| I hate writing about myself because it makes me feel self concious and egotistical. Plus how do I know what you want to know? |
| I'm just your average run-of-the-mill hopeless romantic with MS. |
| I've lived in a small New England town my whole life. I love it. Doubt I'll ever leave New England and I know if I do it will be somewhere with four distict seasons. I have had a few serious relationships in my life. I am still friends with two of them. The way I see it a good friend is too hard to come by to just discard because you weren't romantically compatable. Might sound foolish but I believe in true love. Soulmates. You know that someone out there who completes you. And even if it takes a lifetime I will never stop searching for her. As I stated on the main page I am currently disabled. I hope to get back on my feet and go back to work. Till then I am spending some of my time constructively. I am writing a novel and write poetry (the mushy sentimental type). Been told I'm even kind of good. But then again what friend would honestly tell you you suck? |

| Just saw a new neurologist today, May 1st. he took the time to actually go over my MRIs with me. Finally I have seen the enemy. My brain is almost completely clean (save the comments for yourself...lol), my disability comes from a big lesion in my spinal column, near vertebrae C5 C6. |
| Hmmm...what else should I tell you? My favorite type of music is love balads sung by men. Have I told you lately, by Rod Stewart. Everything I do, by Bryan Adams. This night by Billy Joel. That type of song. And yes I like country. Oh yeah I have been known to actually cry listening to songs. |

| In October 2000, the 16th to be precise, I was given some devastating news in a neurologist's office. I was officially diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, better known as MS. I didn't even know what that was. I won't get too technical here but basically you white blood cells attack your nerves. This causes signals to be lost from the brain and the corrosponding body part is affected. (if you want learn more click on the links under my pic.) My MS acted like a stroke, I lost most control of the right side of my body. At the moment I go for chemo, cytoxan, every 6 weeks. Harsh but it helps a lot. I have been in a wheelchair since August 2001 and just got my power chair August 2002. I've been very lucky my familly and friends have really stepped up to help me, even though most times I struggle way too long before asking. I don't mind talking about it so if you have a question just ask. |
