About Me
I am 44 years old (amazingly enough because as the cliche goes I feel much younger. So let me start again). I am 32 years old, an unmarried and do not have children. I have two wonderful dogs, Fred and Pepper. I no longer work but have made multiple sclerosis my career. I have written three books about ms, one written through the eyes of my Service Dog, Fred. We are about to finish his second book. All three books have been published. I lived at home with my mum. My father passed away two and a half years ago. I have two brothers and they are married and had a lovely family of children.
