SHARA TOWNESuite101 Member MY NAME IS SHARA TOWNE AND I AM A MOTHER OF A BLENDED FAMILY OF 5 CHILDREN. THEIR AGES RANGE FROM 9 TO 17 YEARS OF AGE. I ENJOY THIS PART OF LIFE. I AM ALSO A LUPUS SURVIOR. THAT MEANS I HAVE LUPUS AND YET I HAVE SURVIVED IT AND WILL BEAT IT. 2002 HAS BEEN A REAL DOOZY FOR ILLNESS RE: SLE. MY MED LIST OF ABOUT 15 MEDS INCLUDING 80 MG OF PREDNISONE AND 1000MG OF CELLCEPT. I HAVE DEVELOPED SVT AND WILL HAVE A SECOND PROCEEDURE THIS MONTH TO TRY AND CORRECT IT. I HAVE SINCE GAINED 60LBS SINCE ON PREDNISONE. I AM NOW A DIABETIC FROM THE PRED. I STILL TRY AND FEEL BEAUTIFUL INSIDE. I HAVE RELIZED THAT LIFE IS SO PRECIOUS AND YOU GET OUT WHAT YOU PUT IN. EDUCATION ALSO IS YOUR FRIEND WITH THIS ILLNESS. IF YOU WANT TO STAY ILL, STAY FEELING SORRY FOR YOURSELF AND YOU WILL. JUST REMEMBER WE ARE NOT THE ONLY ONES SUFFERING AND WE WILL OVERCOME. WHEN THE MULLGRUBS COME AROUND..........AND THEY DO, I TRY TO FIND SOMTHING THAT COULD BE WORSE AND THANK GOD AND MY FAMILY THAT I HAVE THEM. SLE WILL EITHER MAKE YOU OR BREAK YOU.............THE BALL IS ALWAYS IN YOUR COURT. |
