I'm 46 years old, a mom of two grown daughters, a wife of 27 years and I have just been diagnosed with MS recently. I have 3 dogs and an 18 year old cat, and I love to garden when I have the time. I do massage therapy for a living, which I love.
I am 55 years of age. My husband recently passed away of massive heart failure on Feb 3rd. I have been sick for over a month with a cold/flu thing going around.

I'm a retired Navy Weather Guesser who enjoys looking at clouds and sunsets. I had a radical cystectomy a year ago in September and chose to have a Neo bladder constructed .
