@cbrackle I am 66 and have Lyme, Fibromyalgia, chronic and severe treatment resistant depression, PTSD, and a survivor of years of childhood abuse as well as the survivor of the suicide of a parent. I found this site rather by accident in researching Fibro. Not having a self-pity fest rather letting others know we have been through seeming insurmountable odds and we are still trying to help one another. I have adult children close by. Rarely see them and thankful I am not a burden on them...2 grandchildren that are a joy and hope for the future.
