I wanted to take a moment to officially introduce myself. I am 27 years old, living in a small city in NW Minnesota. I currently live with my Mom and brother. My brother and I help to care for our Mom who is also chronically ill.

We have 3 cats and 2 dogs. Music is a big coping mechanism for me. I love all types of music and love exploring new music as well. In my spare time, you can find me at the lake, fishing and/or camping or hanging out with my friends. I try my best to not let my illness take hold and ruin my life.

That is me in a nutshell.
