[Keely]

I just posted a message with a Tysabri question in the title, and realized that, because of that, some people might not click on it. I'd like to properly introduce myself to everyone, so I'm writing the biographical part of the post over again!

I hope you won't think it's vain of me--- it's just that I've wanted to become part of this family for such a long time! I feel like I know you all, and want you to know me too!

If you've read this part before, please accept my apologies!

I live way up in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, above 9,100 feet! I came here because I was tired of touring---I've been a singer and pianist all my life, started as an opera singer, got sick in England, came home, DX with Lupus and Crohn's, started up again with a radio show, started touring again as a pianist/singer with cruise lines, met my DH (a passenger!!!) on one of the ships, married 3 weeks later and then he joined me for more tours, more ships.

Health gave out, couldn't tour anymore, came here to the mountains, went back to writing for newspapers, which I do from home, write regularly for two newspapers here in Colorado (features and my own column, where I can be myself!) and gig when I can, with my pedal harp and accordion. That's All, Folks!!!!

When life hands you lemons, make a scotch n' soda with a twist!

Welcome Keely!

Noone here thinks your vain. I've only been here for a short time but here is where I and u will have something special -- people who really care about you. People who will help, support, listen when you are down and rejoice with you on up days. It's all yours - just reach and you have a family.

look at it this way, Keely...

some of us NEED to have things said twice, thrice, or even morce for it to sink in.



at the risk of repeating myself (and re-repeating, ad nauseam, ad infinitum)

WELCOME !!

now, I *think* I welcomed you to our fold already, but am pretty sure it wasn't in a Tysabri thread, as I (yes, you're right about that! lol!) . . . . .

wait a sec, compound sentences always frizzle my nizzle, where was I?

oh yeah... um... I wouldn't *go* to a Tysabri thread, as I know bupkis about it.

so, it hadda be somewheres else?

ah, I just adore these assistive devices for the memory-impaired (eg: "Find all posts by "X") here it is:

so... where was I?

oh yeah...

WELCOME !!

ruh roh! didn't I already DO that part?



PS: I used to play the piano too... like, Chopin, Scarlatti, Bartok kinda stuff... alas, my manual dexterity is insufficient to do even simple arpeggios and trills nowadays.

Loooove it! I can relate! It makes it pretty interesting when I have to interview folks, let me tell you...if I'm working on several stories, sometimes I have to stop and try to remember who I'm talking to--and why!

Meant to add to my introduction post: DX'd with MS on March 6, 2008--the day Brett Favre had his retirement press conference! That's how my DH will remember the date

Yeah, the Tysabri thing is a big puzzle for me, as I have to weigh the perceived risks, etc.---but I'm reading raves about it, which is encouraging.

Hi Keely!!

You sound like an interesting person. You're one of those ppl who actually have an interesting answer when ppl ask you what you do, or what you use to do.

I write too. I created a cartoon with my husband and I'm in the process of editing a film screenplay I wrote.

Welcome

Kim
