10/23.I am now a three year breast cancer survivor.

4 -22, My building is experiencing a delay in having our mail picked up and delivered. The post office are working with building management to resolve this issue.

4-22. I was banned from a swap for not having an updated profile. It is now updated

7-3-21- Please excuse my hand writing as i have developed essential tremor in both hands. ``````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
12/29/19 Here is my new story. Within 36 hours, I was told that I had breast cancer,had my hand surgery and developed Guillian Barre Syndrome. GBS left me paralyzed from the neck down, I am slowly recovering. My hands are not back to normal, I think doing swaps is going to help. As of 10 -1 2022 I have no evidence of cancer, residuals of GBS is still kicking my butt. I am a survivor!.
