Thanks family

[Guest guest]

Thanks family for all the kind words and support. Your all so amazing,

and there is so much love here. This is my family, and I'm so grateful

to be here.

Some might know me, a little more then other's. I've been here for

awhile, and I have found some wonderful friends who email me often. I

don't have a lot of family, my mom and dad gave me away when I was 9

months old, along with 4 siblings. I tried to get close to my siblings,

but were all so different people. My dad's side of the family, disowned

me basically, when I finally moved with my grandma, moms mother. I had

to start working at 15, buying my own food and clothes. My grandma, I

found out was mentally ill, but not being treated. I was poisoned at

16yrs old, the only thing that saved me, she didn't give me enough.

Growing up was not easy, but I made it. I fought my own battles, I was

very head strong in life, and I still am at some point.

The battle of the health issues, has been the most devastating. I can't

seem to get my life back, and I never will. I have learned to

compramise with myself, weird I know. I am a totally different person

then before, and I know everyone here relates to this. We have to start

new, and try to find something we like about this new body. For all the

new people diagnosed with one of these diseases, it gets better. You

will go through some challenges, but it will be ok.

I'm dealing with a broken heart right now. I just don't know how to fix

it right now. It's so hard to deal with this now, when I'm trying to

get myself better. Just know, you all are my family, and I need you all

so very much. I am here for all of you, as well.

With loving wishes to all,

Tawny
