(((((((((((Cheryl))))))))))) Bless your Pea picking Heart..

That's the horror of this %$#@$ disease....It chooses to strike us during the prime of our lives and dwindles us down untill we have little of our old selves left.

Am I a little bitter...Nahhhh.. I am thankful, like Cherie says. that it happened to me slowly over the years and I was able to lead a fairly normal life until it hit me again in my 50s....then the bottom started fallin out and I sort of lost all the big stuff, like walking, running, driving, bowling, partying, strength and youth, over the last 10 years.

You are still one of my heroes, Cheryl..I just know things will get better for you soon..
