I'm an R.N., adult educator and free-lance writer who is currently disabled by CFIDS (Chronic Fatigue & Immune Dysfunction Syndrome). I was previously a highly credentialed and accomplished critical care nurse. I also spent a few years of my career in home health nursing.

I've had my computer for just over a year, and just recently begun dabbling in web page design. Although it is difficult with the memory, concentration and visual problems associated with CFIDS, I enjoy the creative outlet and hope to inspire others who deal with chronic illness or other life-changing events. My message is that there is always hope.
