loves being a new mom! Grace is smiling a lot now... How rewarding....
About Me: Female, 22, St. Louis area ;) - MO, member since Jan 2007
I am completely open to your opinion & I will always give mine in return.
I’ve always been able to appreciate a good debate. I am willing to “release my claws” if
... [More] I realize the other opinion is stronger, I realize I am wrong, or if I can “put myself in your shoes.” I hope to gain knowledge & insight from other people who are willing to learn from me & the rest of medhelp.

MY RELATIONSHIP
I was married in my church, Gospel Light Free Will Baptist Church, on August 9, 2008. My husband & I had been together for over 4 years before we tied the knot. We are best friends. At home we spend a lot of our time laughing, loving on eachother, & just enjoy being young lovers. But just like everyone else, we bump into obsticles along the way. I'm a strong believer in NOT GIVING UP (esspecially since my life w/ him is anything but misserable.) I can almost guarantee that I WILL HAVE A LOT OF QUESTIONS for medhelp. But one thing I guarantee is... I WILL NOT be asking for your opinion on my age, none of you know exactly what I've been through (I'm not saying it's worse that yours. Don't worry, I'd hate to take that away from the victims of society on this site + I don't sit there and tell anyone that they are too old to find love.) & I DO NOT WANT people to tell me that I should not be with my husband. I've already made that commitment, plan to keep it, & will forever fight for it. If my husband & I have a disagreement, something, or someone gets in our way... I'm not going to just give up & leave him. There are too many divorces happening today from people hopping into marriage too fast, & from people who give up too easy. My grandparents were 14 & 18 when they got married. They are happy together till this day & when I asked my grandma how she MADE THIS WORK she said "IT WAS WORK and it was hard. At times I wanted to give up, but one of us were always willing to make things work & with all of that HOLDING ON, IT MADE US STRONGER & who we are today." They grew up together, stonger together & they are still going strong together.

If you have any success stories like that, I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR THEM. I esspecially appreciate GOOD NEWS & ENCOURAGEMENT. Those are my two favorites & that's what I plan on giving the most of here on medhelp.

A LITTLE HISTORY
I was raised between my parents & my grandparents. I've been to public school & I've been homeschooled. I was raised differently from a lot of people & I have a lot of different views on subjects. (that's where all the controversy comes along) Eventually my grandparents & my parents (along with my 2 little sisters and me) moved in together. For the last days of being "pushed out of the nest" that's how it was... So instead of being raised differently by my grandparents & then gettin into a twist by conforming to my parents beliefs on how I should be raised. My mom, grandma, & papa all got together (not because of me.. I'll get into that in my next paragraph) & I got the privlige of getting all of thier love in one home.

ALS
My papa (grandpa) was diognosed w/ ALS also known as Lou Gerhigs Disease.
I support the cure... Stem cell research, ANYTHING to take away this torture.

ADHD
I was diognosed w/ adult ADHD. I don't really have questions about it. I've found a lot of ways to cope & I WOULD BE MORE THAN HAPPY to share my experiences & coping skills with others who are dealing with ADHD (themselves or family members)


FIBROCYSTIC BREAST DISEASE
Before I ever even started to develop mass in my breasts, I had these knots that were developing & found out later that I had fibrocystic breasts. I've found ways around the pain using VERY CONSTRICTING sprorts bras, primrose oil, & vitamin E. So far pain killers haven't worked for me. I was worried about it for a very long time because I was told they were considered pre cancerous & that if I did have cancer it would be very hard to detect... yada yada. BUT more recently I've been able to relax, thanks to some of your posts.

EATING DISORDERS
I can relate to people (women esspecially) that have eating disorders. It has always been an embarrissing subject for me, but since I know sharing my experiences could help someone else suffering or possibly save thier life, I won't be a coward & hold back.

ASPERGERS SYNDROME
My all time favorite subject! It's the most interesting to me. I love talking w/ Aspies!
Then I will tell you more about why it interests me so much. YOU ARE GENIUS BABY!
