Guest guest Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 Tom, Hey fellow PA person...we're practically neighbors! I live in Blue Bell! My daughter lives in Pottstown just down the road from you. My youngest son lives in Spring City and my oldest son lives in Philadelphia. Mike and I have been married for 43 years, have three married kids and two gorgeous grand daughters.( Photos in my album) I'm 64, retired because of this misearable disease three years ago from teaching at Montgomery County Community College. So, if you want to talk..my phone number is listed on the database. There is one other local girl ( Joyce) in Bucks county. I'm going to Penn's Lung center..it's kept me stable ( " in the stable!") since DX in 2005. My older son is an IT person as is my son-in law. Very handy people to have aroun d because I'm always into some sort of computer trouble. So...welcome to the "air family" and keep posting and reading. Z fibriotic NSIP/05 Z 64, fibriotic NSIP/o5/PA And “mild” PH/10/07 and Reynaud’s too!! No, NSIP was not self-inflicted…I never smoked! Potter, reader,carousel lover and MomMom to Darah and Sara “I’m gonna be iron like a lion in Zion” Bob Marley Vinca Minor-periwinkle is my flower Tom wrote: Thanks to the ones who have welcomed me. It sounds like there are some similarities we share. thanks to MamaSher for reminding me that it is not just me...... So, on a personal note. I live in SE PA about 45 miles west of Philly. My wife, Cheryl and I have been married 36 years and have lived in Upstate and Northern NY, Nashville, Dunedin Fl and finally here in Gilbertsville PA. I am 60 years old. We have a son, who is 33, is developmentally disabled with a touch of CP. He is non verbal so we communicate in Sign Language. (when the arthritis is acting up, it feels like talking with a mouth full of cotton when hand shapes are required, LOL) Matt still lives at home and attends a work program daily. Amy Jo is our daughter and is 25 living in San . I am currently on Short Term Disability from work and dealing with the Insurance company regularly. But my background is in Laboratory Medicine, Clinical Chemistry. However for the last 13 years I have been working in IT (computing) Tom > > Hi Tom, Welcome to the board!
