Hello , my name is Sharon . I am 54 years young and live in the Beautiful South . When I was younger I felt like I could take on the world and had the energy to do it , I never got sick. . I became a private sitter for the disabled and eventually a CNA working in nursing homes for 8 years which I loved until I pulled a disc in my back . 2 surgeries later I was a little better but still in pain sometimes especially on rainy days 2 years later I foundout I had 2nd stage breat cancer and ended up getting a double mastectomy due to cancer being a big thing in our family . 2 years later I ended up with stomach cancer and came through that also . I was recently diagnosed with ostioarthritis and stay in pain alot in my lower back and hips which makes it very hard to walk most days . The radiation and chemo burned the small fibers in my feet which makes it even worse . I would be very grateful if I had a jucuzzi or hot tub but I'm really happy to just be alive surrounded by family . Thanks for reading my story . God Bless every one going through these illnesses .
