About Me

Sometimes I feel 91 and sometimes I feel 19. I have the curse of being interested in everything and truly accomplished in nothing, except maybe Pediatrics. I love to read (but it's difficult to see the print these days); I love music (to listen to it and to make it happen)and I'm renovating a house (yikes!). I also have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, which is the reason I, most of the time now, feel 91. See my blog "Pain and Suffering" or go to the EDS Website: http://www.ednf.org/ for more info.Sometimes when you hear hoofbeats, you should think of Zebras!

Upcoming Uterusectomy

Twenty three years ago, at this hour, I was definitely in labor with my daughter. About 5 hours later, she was born. She was red, not altogether thrilled with the process and her nose was a little squ...
