Please get to know me

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone--my namd is Lin Massey and

I have been diagnosed with CP after many years of acute alcoholism. I drank so

much for so long that I am surprised to be here to talk about it. I have read

many posts on the MB and not many from people who got the problem drinking, yet

it is the main cause. I'm 52 years old

and I didn't stop drinking til a few

months ago. Alcohlism is an insidious

and life-destroying thing. i don't

work anymore. My hobbies are woodworking (refinishing antique furn.)

and photography. Last month I was sick

for 16 days. I have started keeping track now because of ow often the attacks

are coming. I started on morphine sa about a week ago and take

oxycodone for breakthru pain. I have

been hosptialized five times--darn near dying on one of them. I'm happy to

have found this group and was lucky enough to have met Heidi Griffeth on

my first contact! She is even the

same age as I! We hit it off right away

and I will look forward to meeting

more of you thru the MB. I am an

open, frank perso and will answer any

questions anyone has of me. Hope

to hear from some of you.

Can someone tell me what " wrap message text " means? Thanks! I'm also new to

the cyber world.
