About me:
Having two rare diseases Cushing's and Sarcoidosis along with a host of related illnesses I realize how debilitating chronic illness is. Every aspect of my life has been affected. It’s been a long hard journey for me. However, it has made me a stronger person and I have learned to appreciate the simple things in life.
Helping others gives me a sense of purpose and helps me believe that my illnesses are not all in vain. Because of this, I volunteered to be a representative for The Cushing's Understanding Support & Help Org. And later accepted the position of treasurer after being elected in 2003. The organization is a non-profit 501-C and was formed in an effort to promote Cushing's awareness, show support to those who are going through test, treatment, and recovery. Patients need awareness and support while everyone needs more awareness in order to bring about improved diagnosis, treatment and recovery. I’m proud to be a part of the CUSH organization and I believe that by "Uniting together we can make a difference." Visit the CUSH website at www.CUSH.org to learn more about Cushing's Syndrome.
