Dorothy's Story

Life After dropping out of college I began working with computers & soon was teaching computer classes at Davenport College. I was wise enough to stay single til age 30 (YES! partied all through my 20s)and then had my son when I was 34, first daughter at age 36, and second daughter at age 38. John, Michelle and Carol are now in their 30s! After 11 years of marriage I divorced & went back to work. Returned to Colorado in 2000 & bought a darling little home. I fell in love with Colorado on a vacation in 1969. It's a lot more crowded now, but it's still the best! I've been retired since middle of 2007 and that's good because I now take care of my one and only grandchild while his Mommy goes to work. He is so full of energy he keeps me going! In fact, we say he takes care of me every day! 2011 was the first time I've been worried about my health! I am now taking vitamins again, and I am hoping to get stronger every day in 2012. I owe a huge thank you to those who prayed for me thi...Expand for more
s past year. Some were ladies I have not seen since high school! I am so thankful. God has been good to me. He gave me 3 wonderful children and now this magical little grandson. I am blessed. UPDATE MARCH 2013: The last two years have been very hard. My doc says she does not know how I continue to breathe, even on Oxygen 24/7, because I am so anemic. Last blood count was 6. Called doc office today as I would like to be checked for Mylodysplastic Syndrome (that's what Robin Roberts has). Also want to check Nuepregen, a med that works on bone marrow, I understand. Please continue to pray for me. My children have helped me so much. I am so thankful for them and for your prayers. Older daughter Michelle and her husband Alex bought me the iMRS mat and daughter Carol sets me up with one or 2 treatments everyday. It is helping. Worst blood pressure reading was 200/100 I think. Using the iMRS every day I have stabilized at 120/64. A miracle! Hope all of you are doing great.
