hmmmm....where to start? At the beginning I guess! I was born in Somerville, New Jersey on March 7, 1972. (My "twin" is Marcey(Chase)Weiss. We met in HS and later found out we were born in the SAME hospital on the SAME day! too weird huh?) I enjoyed playing with my cousins Jennifer, Christopher,and Brian - we were inseperable when we were little. The 4 Amigos! Then my life was changed forever on December 26, 1975. My parents were on their way to the hospital (my Mom had a kidney disease called Good Pastures ~ I don't know what was GOOD about it) and as they were turning into the hospital parking lot they were broadsided and my Mother was killed. She was 25 years old. My Dad had a really hard time (since he was driving) and for a few years I lived with my Grandma & Grandpa Arthur in Bound Brook, NJ. On June 26, 1977 my Dad got remarried to my stepmom, Diane. She is my Mom, she is the only mother I have ever known and even though we had our ups and downs while I was growing up, I couldn't have made it without her. I was NEVER the "red-headed stepchild". My (BIG) little brother, Anthony was born in April 1979. We soon moved to Lisbon, Iowa and my little sister, Megan was born June 1983. (She is expecting *TWIN BOYS* July 2006! Auntie loves you Marcus & Darian!!) I had to take my little sis EVERYWHERE with me!!! hehehe but I loved it. So anyway...if everybody thinks Tunkhannock is boring....you have never lived in IOWA. So in my sophomore year of HS I moved from a HS with 100 kids in all 4 grades to almost 300 ppl in my class. Talk about shock! Believe it or not, I was SHY and QUIET then! Until I met my best friends Wendy & Teresa (the twins) and Missy and.....that's enough of HS. On to College! Went to Keystone for 2 yrs. got my AA. Then on to Mansfield (hated Cardiac Hill) where I graduated with a BA in English. In 1993 I met the love of my life..... at the Creekside (that should have been my first clue!) j/k and we were married on September 23, 1995 which would have been my Mom's 45th birthday. I have worked at Boice's Hoagie Barn (1989 til it closed) Mulligan Printing (1994-1997) and of course Wally World (1996-forever) My hubby and I have 3 beautiful children Jakob, 8 Caleb, 4 and our little Princess Kira, 2. They keep us hopping! So I guess that is my life in a nutshell. Well, besides the fact that I was dx with relapsing/remitting MS (multiple sclerosis) in Dec. 2000. I am currently taking Betaseron which is a subQ shot every other day. I currently have no long term problems except chronic fatigue, some numbness, and some bladder issues. But I don't complain, b/c I could be much worse.

When you see me, think of this:People who have “invisible†MS symptoms have a unique set of problems. Some people assume that you don't really have a disease. Add in living with all the other things that other people can't see—your feelings of anger, uncertainty, frustration, and fear. Still, people will look right at you and say, “You look so good!â€
Everyone experiences fatigue, but people with MS are hit hard by a kind of fatigue that can be overwhelming. This can be hard to explain to outsiders. People with MS often expend extra effort on activities—such as lifting legs to walk—which once were second nature. These efforts add to the burden of MS fatigue.Common “invisible†MS symptoms
that are hard to see include fatigue, pain, cognitive problems like memory loss or trouble solving problems, weakness, blurred vision, numbness, prickly or tingling sensations, heat sensitivity, dizziness, and bladder or bowel problems.This is what I deal with everyday for the rest of my life.
