I was diagnosed with
autonomic nervous system dysfunction in 1993
and fibromyalgia in 1997.
I have started taking yoga classes
and am doing a series of sun salutations
every day
which I am finding alleviates some of the pain and
fatigue
I experience with the fibromyalgia.
I try not to let these things slow me down,
and do a number of different crafts in addition to
my research.
To see some of my needlecraft projects,
please go to the SALMAGUNDI page.

Our house is called "Schloss Rawsonwolfe" and we refer
to our cats as the "moat monsters." To see pictures of the moat monsters, please go to KATZENGESICHT.
David and I also volunteeer at a no-kill shelter, NEADY
CATS, in Princeton, Mass. We dp whatever needs to be done, from stuffing envelopes and sending out fliers, to doing photographs
for their websites, cleaning cages and socializing unhappy newcomers. Some of the cats there are unadoptable for various
reasons, and so we sponsor one (currently a Felive HIV positive, nearly blind little girl named Helen). Our sponsorship
helps pay for medicines, treats, and general upkeep for this cat which might otherwise be euthanized. To see pictures
of our kitty friends and of the NEADY CATS facility, please click on the link to NEADY CATS.
