After suffering for 15 years with the most devastatingly pain 24/7, always having to push myself thou the day being in a state of giving up and wanting to die, doctor after doctor, diagnosis after diagnosis and never getting free from what I was going thru, losing my concession business of 23 years, not being able to do thing other mom's did with their kids and grand kids and just really wondering if I'd ever be able to be normal again in this life, I really had just begin to accept pain would be apart of my day and night for the rest of my life.

I tried to create a new life around this diagnoses which I got three years ago, 12 years after it started and many prescriptions of pain pills, psych med cause you know in the beginning they all told me it was in my head and I had to be crazy, muscle relaxers the list is so long I can't remember them all I just filled them and prayed it worked.

Due to me not being able to hold a job for more than 4-5 hours a day from being to tired, and a daughter still at home to care for who was reaching her teens and you know teens have lots of wants weather you can buy them or not, I started to work from home on the computer as a network marketer.

Fibromyalgia has taken me from the life I knew, but my new life allows me to slow down and smell the roses, I don't like the fact I have Fibromyalgia but I am grateful for the people I have come to know and can help, the personal growth things I have learned, a love for my self and others that makes me know all things are possible with god.

I’m not 100% better but I’m getting my life back. I now have a hope of getting a social life again. I work from home as a network marketer, and am co-creator of a healthy coffee biz, and soon to start a on-line radio show.

to your health & feeling better.................
