MDJunction to me

Macv"For me, MDjunction has been a place where I can share my experiences
living with the very rare bone disease called Ollier's ( Enchondromatosis ) with the parents of children recently diagnosed. I can help them not to run
into the pitfalls my parents did when I was young, give them a bit of a view
from their child's perspective and simply be there to offer support and
hope to people who are scared and just had their lives upended. I also belong to a chronic pain group and it's been a Godsend to be able to actually
talk with others who understand what I'm dealing with. Besides them helping me through my tough times, I can be there to help them as well. Here too, I can use my years of experience to help others avoid pitfalls and it makes me feel good, gives my life more purpose. MDjunction brings people
together when their suffering, at their darkest and feeling alone in this world and allows some light to be brought back into their lives. HOPE, that's what
MDjunction means to me!

I'm an Advocate

I just had to share a last chapter in my daughter's life with you this morning.

My husband and I went to my daughter's house for dinner last night (she lives 2 1/2hrs. away) with her and her boyfriend of 8yrs. Last night she told me that she and her boyfriend were getting up early this morning and going to the park to watch the sunrise. We also talked about her getting married someday and her waiting for her boyfriend to be totally comfortable with her past first. After 2yrs., she was getting antsy about it.

She calld me this morning and told me that he popped the question this morning at the park and how romantic it was. She is sooo happy. Her boyfriend stuck with her through everything she had been through and still loved her so much.

I started crying tears of joy because I am so happy for the both of them. Life is good. She feels complete now. love, jenn

OMG! It's amazing. He is such an amazing man! He has stood right next to me through everything. I have hurt him, as I have hurt many. But Our love is stronger than any drug, any addiction. Our life is great and things couldn't be better! Plus, the ring is gorgeous!
