The Day

I was running a very profitable businesses in the hospitality industry. In 1990 it all started when I went to get out of bed to go to work. As the next minute I was on the floor my husband at the time picked me up and rang the ambulance. Several tests later I was diagnosed with the disease. To my shock then every thing changed.

All things ahead

I had to literally shut the doors of my business over night. As time has now gone by I lost my business and marriage till finally losing everything I had, but all things ahead I now have a life with wonderful carers to look after me and coping day to day with what ever comes my way.
