About Me
I am a wife and mother. I am a good friend, loyal to the end. I am a perfectionist, who has some serious trouble delegating. Now, I am also the girl with a very rare serious neurological disorder. It is this last part I am having trouble with. Don't get me wrong - I've accepted the diagnosis - it's just now that is all anyone sees when they see me. Not that I'm a great wife or an awesome mom, just the poor girl with that disease, the one no one has ever heard of. More to know about me: I'm smart, fun, crazy with my kids, wild with my friends, and absolutely in love with my husband!
