so i hope no one wants to hit me. sorry cindy.

i was dx'd with MS at 53 and i'm 58 now; female. i had to resign my registered nurse job in '05. i worked with sick & well babies for 35 yrs. nothing puts a smile on my face faster than a baby & a puppy.

i mainly use a cane but have been using my rollator & scooter a bit.
i just recently got approved for SSDI. what a relief!

i'm single and live alone. i'm independent, stubborn, and i've always perservered. that's what's helped my lose 35 lbs in the last 8 mos. i have 28 more lbs to go.

more to come i'm sure. glad to be here and meet you all.

Welcome to NT Nancy

Welcome to the community, Nancy! This is probably a dumb question, but what is AMN? I'm not too savvy about all the abbreviations!
Hugs,

Hi Judy!! You mean you are actually "admitting" to being a friend of AMN'S???? You better start ducking! The tomatoes might not be ripe and may cause a bruise..... ha

Glad to see you here.....

Pounds make it my way! Having low thyroid (Hashimotos) and long term use of Prednisone....I'm destined to have a fatbod forever!

But a gramonkey! Now that warms a heart from toes up!
My one and only gramonkery, 9 YO Madi! She's my heart throb...is my reason for life!

I love AMN name....too funny!
Glad you made it your way over here....BT still having problems...
It took hours to get in, but not able to nav thru yet...oh well! De'ja'vue!
Its 2 weeks now...but everyone is mumm about this! Hummmmmm!?!?!

My mom was RN adminstrator, post partum OB/GYN dept.
She has ALZ...today when I called her she hardly made sense! OMG! This is the worst she's ever been....like she flipped out all in one week! I'm soooo worried I'll lose my mom soon.
Wonder how long this can last like this before she dies?!?! She once was a very smart woman.

I was a Flea, then sold real estate when got too ill and lazy! LoL!
Make sure you take lots of Methyl B12 everyone...sure helps with the tireds!

Does anyone have ANY good gossip? I'm bored!
Maybe a good cat fight would fix that! LoL!

Hubby in Chicago all week w/ work...but when he gets home....we're leavin for the Fla Keys for vacy! Its an all day travel....from Oregon to Florida....ug! Wish it was 1st class and not having to sit in cattle car, like it feels....It'll take time to get my legs unfurled! I'm tall!
And...I'm not really excited....my bed is vacy enough!
Just give me the remote! A bag of chips and I'm set!
Don't even have to wash the sand off yer bunns!
And I'm gonna miss my gramonkey big time....I'm gonna cry!

She's really mad about our leaving, not taking her w/ like month long trip last summer.
But gram and gramps need some time alone! She doesn't see it that way, promises to be quiet! Yeah...like she was all the way down I-5 all those 2,500 miles! Just glad had enough DVD's!

Hugs to all...cheryl
