my name is lisa, and i am 43 years old. i am the mother of nine (yes nine) wonderful children, who range in the ages of 23 years to 4 year old twins. I am also an active member of my church, i sing in the choir and am in charge of our prayerline. i am currently attempting to start a home business in gift basket sales, with a close friend of mine. i am a little unsure about the timing right now, because of the uncertainty of my illness.
