First let me Thank you for allowing me in this group.
I am Shelley a 33 yr old full time working mom to 3. I am a Dept Supervisor at Kohl's. I am loving my job right now. I suffer anaxity/depression disorder. My family and I are from Maryland. I am married to a wonderful man who supports me in everything I do. He is my best friend and has been there for me through EVERYTHING for the past 11.5 yrs. This coming January we will be married 12 yrs. My children are 16.5 (17 in Sept), 10 and 7. The two oldest are my boys. My daughter is a sickly child. She is ALWAYS sick and we don't know exactly why yet. When she was a few months old she had a fever seizure. Her fever was almost 106' (it raised really fast) and she went into a seizure. She was paralized on the whole one side of her body for 5 hrs. I was scared and didn't want to lose my baby. She has a really low immune system. She stays sick all year round. My youngest son is the only one who is healthy (is over weight though). My oldest son is BiPolar, ADHD and has a compulsive disorder. He has been abusive to me, and my children in the past. He is a really good kid, but he can go off in a minute. I love my son (like I do the other 2) and will do anything for him. He has been asking for help for the past few months and heis NOW getting the help he was asking for. He starts seeing a Pshy last week and a Therapist 3 weeks ago. My son has always struggled in school and is finally doing pretty good now. He's a Junior and in a few weeks will offically be a senior. He's been off of his meds for 3 yrs and was doing good until a few months ago when he found out his Bio dad was out of jail. His Bio dad was abusive to both of us. His Bio dad has contacted him through myspace and my son was very confused about his dad. He didn't know if he wanted to talk to him or see him, etc... My son has made the decision that he don't want anything to do with his bio dad. For the past 12 years my husband has been his dad and it will stay that way!
I am sorry about this book that I just wrote, but if there is anything else you need to know please feel free to ask.
