About lizupatree

After nearly 10 years of "yes, no, maybe so" diagnoses with MS, they diagnosed epilepsy and some unnamed neuro and autoimmune problems. But still have family and many friends here on PLM w/MS. I was devastated to be 'disabled,' but it's given me a chance to try my hand at my dream of writing. I've just published my second book, and find 'disabled' isn't the end. You can read a chapter from my first novel: http://lizupatree.blogspot.com/2009/10/chapter-1-eugenie-1826.html Or my second: http://lizupatree.blogspot.com/2010/04/snippet-from-book-2.html My blog: http://lizupatree.blogspot.com/
