Everyone asks me why I'm so positive even though life has thrown me some bad card. I wasn't always happy and positive. At one point in my life I was 350pds at 4ft tall and verry depressed, they had me on lots of sterioids and my family would verbaly hurt me because of it. I ate to much and almost tried to kill myself a few times.  I leared something from this experience and that is

Today for me is truly a wonderful day.  As a woman we have been seen as leser vesles and our rights had to be fought for, Like my grandma did when she had to fight to  vote for the first timegiving us her decendents our rights to being strong and holding the country together in the time of WWII and thrugh any stugle. To being disabled to many see as a burden and a weekness I see streangt

I still feal like crap so this morning i got up did my hair slaped on some makeup did my earand and I did feal alittle better expecialy since I got hit on..  the rest of my day I spent with my 7yrold nephew wich alway chears me up, he defenatly makes life more fun. I even get to spend tomarow with him and I know its gona be a good day even if I feal like crap!

I had my infusion yesterday it compleatly wiped me out, I slept through the whole thing.  Hung out with a friend for a couple hours then I slept for 15 hours.  Im still flaring but hopingthat the Retuxinmab will kick in soon. I have to do the other one in 2 weeks. Also my doctor gave me a new cream (Voltaren gel/ diclofenac sodium topical gel) its suposed to help with swelling. 

My day started off rocky, woke up to a flare.  Had to run an erand well on my way my negibor stops me asks for my help and I went to help him turned off my car and took care of my friend when I went to start my car again it wouldnt start flooded my car,  I had to roll my car out of there driveway well got stuck in the middle of the street and tried to push my car so hard that I litera

something to think about I have given blood for 16yrs prob about twice a month (which dosn't hurt anymore) but I started to think how much blood have they really taken. How much have you had to givejust for a test through your life time?    That is what is on the agenda for the day go give blood so I can take the infusion next week,  hopefully it dosnt compleatly wipe me ou

Today has been a farly good day Im hurting some but got all my bills paid , and now I can relax for the day.

Today was a rude awakening, woke up at 6 am when my body decided that it wanted to hurt all over and swell so much that i look like a chipmunk.  So it has been a day for early morning pain medsjust to get through.  Class dosnt start till the 12th which im kinda glad cause I really dont want to miss any more school.  I sometimes wish i could trade this weak cripled body for a new
