Introduction	I am someone who thinks so much that i am not sure i will ever be able to get it out, here, on this blog..my mind races rapidly to this and that, all important(to me at least). I had brain and spinal surgery in '04 for Arnold Chiari Malformation & Syringomyelia and am surviving on fentanyl pain patches just to live for 6 yrs now. I hate the pain but the pain has been good for me, in that i now see others differently, you never know who is fighting what battle..i deeply care about issues that i feel most people dont give a second thought, but ive found that its usually out of ignorance of an issue..just not knowing about something, truly knowing what such and such might be like, to have to live with on a daily basis, things that fortunately most of us havent crossed paths with..i am a deeply compassionate, empathetic and caring person who talks to much, even if these days, its to myself in my own head.
