About Me: Age 56 Female. A very active gal since I was born, did so many different sports. Had a learned behavior which was an eating disorder which made me exercise, workout hard for years & years. Loved sports! Had 3 children in my early 30s & they were everything to me, as well as my husband and my dog which was my first Dachshund! Many years later...My life turned a 360 when my husband had gotten lung cancer, my C-Spine was a mess and needed surgery. My husband went thru the chemo & radiation, I had C-Spine surgery. Then 1/2 year later, my sweetheart dachshund died in my arms, 2 months later, my husband passed away from cancer....it seems like life just sucked. I have gotten back on my feet after many,many years and now I am fighting for my life again with Lumber Surgery, Pain that does not stop...........
