Hello everyone,

1) Name (as you wish to be known by) Moyer2) Location (be as detailed as you want i.e. just list the country or list country/state/suburb etc) Upper Bucks Co. SE PA3) Personal Info (this is about why you joined. Tell about your illness, or if you are a carer tell about that. Mention your family if you want, or your lifestyle - kids/pets etc)

I really feel like I need a place to come to that has others that have illness in their families and that I can share with day to day life. Right now in our house (we live with my parents) My DH Ed (34yr) has a heart transplant for three years and is doing fine! Charlotte (DD 8 1/2yrs) who is fine also (although a bit frazzeled most days) and homeschooled. (DS 5yrs) who has PDD-NOS (diagnosed at 3yrs) and is currently attending a special preschool class and doing remarkable well. (only has two significant delays anymore....takes two medications to help control rages/aggression and mood) and will more then likely join us at homeschool in the fall. Then downstairs live my parents. My father is 58yrs and fine works full time and does Fire Police with my DH and my sister. My mom is 56 yrs and had been misdiagnosed with MS in 92 and found out in 99 she had Lymes and two other tick borne illnesses not MS. She has much trouble with walking and can not clean (other then the dishes) and so forth anymore. She is improving though as she no longer as we said it spent her days sitting on the floor (falling) she has only fallen a few times lately. She has now been ridded of one of the three illnesses and is working on the remaining ones. She also has the form of diabetes that is diet controled. She takes a ton of meds each day and just finished up injections (I got to give them since everyone else can't look at the needles...gave me the shivers) My younger sister (24yrs) also lives downstairs and has border line diabetes. (same form as my mom's) and just recently had a DVT in her leg and is now on Comadian . I am 34 yrs old and am currently healthy but VERY VERY tired! (both emotionaly and physically) I also have my own home biz in case something would happen to DH in the future (I am still building it at this point (1yr)) but feel so emotionaly wiped out most days. I morn for my mom....wish she was still well and could care for the house and go places with out her "put-Put" mobile (thankful that she has it though!) wish she did not have to feel so awful about when others are nasty enough to comment on her housekeeping. (she likes to try to do it still...and I try to help but most days with all that is going on with my crew I can much anymore which makes me feel guilty....) I am very thankful that I am given the grace to get through each day...and accomplish some of my to do list. My DH's family also both his parents are ill (Parkensons (FIL) and Alzheimers (MIL)) and can not STAND our son so we don't see them. (take all of us or none of us it came down too..they chose none except at Easter and Christmas type gatherings)

We also have in our home One very old Springer Spainle (nicknamed Sir Gump Alot(my sister) My mom has JC (a saint) that helps her balance when walking (we are training him for other assistant type things around the home)(he is 1 1/2 yrs) Upstairs we have Ox (our very old mutt) who is my DH's dog and Sunflower (Mastiff) who is 8 1/2 months old and a BIG baby at heart. (she is DD and Mine)

4) Interests (tell about your hobbies and what you enjoy)

Making my dolls and gardening. I like to sing in choirs and play recorder with our daughter.

I look forward to the fellowship and feel much better already having some place that others understand!
