I'm a 43-year-old Mom of twin daughters (age 16) and I will be married 20 years in May of 2016. I've been battling Type 1 diabetes (since age 15), allergic asthma, low thyroid, depression and anxiety. I enjoy hospice volunteer work and being an eucharist minister for the sick & homebound at my parish. I'm also creative with writing, music (playing keyboards) and jewelry-making. I find I feel better if I'm helping others... but every single day is a struggle for me (*Was just recently diagnosed with bipolar depression or manic depression -- Dec., 2015)
