missjacque55's Life Goal List

My theme for this year: No more weaping & moping around......!!!...... It's !DO or DIE! Tyme.............!!.............

I am inspired by My Aunt Julia, Who was born in the 30's, picked cotton & peas, in her country town of louisville, Georgia, to help her family make money, when she was 8 year old child. She has had a job in the same bakery for like 50 years. Though she made like $200.00 dollars a week, she was able to buy & accomplish many things, a house, several cars, took care of me and 3 other in the family members who were not her children. She allways worked hard and never complained. She unfortunately has the same arthritis conditions as me but has been able to fight through the pain for many years or it's more like I have the same conditions as her as she came first. Another JOLT in my life is the passing of, Burney Mack who also suffered from a arthritic condition, scardosis, who died from complications from this disease ' brought on by phneumonia, has also inspired me, to try to get well and get back to life before I miss it.!! Considering he had worked through his pain for many years, arthritis is a awful disease that is way worse then Dr's want to lead us to believe..... But it also scares me as the 1st Dr. who diagnosed me with all these arthritis ailments, told me I would not die from arthritis itself but would die from the complications it will cause. When a person has a real Arthritis disease truly been diagnosed by a Dr. and they can see it in your bloodwork and on Xrays, I mean Arthritis is not just some aches and pains you get cause you are getting older or feel when the rain is coming, eventually the real disease takes a huge toll out of one's body..... SO it's kinda scary to see Burney Mack die so young from his diagnosed Arthritis.....
