About Me

I'm 26. I love my cat, friends, family, M*A*S*H, sci-fi, and Tom Petty. I'm a simple girl with a not so simple mind trying to find my way and place in this material world, accompanied by my kitty girl. I've gone thru a lot; lost some, gained more. I laugh, eat cookies, and don't scare easy.

I've battled endometriosis and/or adenomyosis since 2001. In 2008 I had endo excision (March) and a hysterectomy (LSH) (removed uterus only, never had children) for adeno (Nov) at the CEC.  Endo returned by 4/10 and my left ovary was removed 6/10.  Click here for my endo story.  Click here for my hyst story.  In July of 2010, I was told that I have fibromyalgia.   I also struggle with depression and chronic sinus problems.

I do not wish to be judged, told what to do, or how to feel; all I ask is for you to read this with an open mind and an open heart.
