The Funny Thing About Addison’s Disease
I found this post on my illness and thought I would put it out there in case someone is curious. A lot of post I read just don’t explain things well but I liked this one.
Actually, there is nothing funny about Addison’s Disease except you may end up on the medical’s examiner’s table awaiting autopsy before you are diagnosed, unless of course, you are the President of the United States as John F. Kennedy was.
Addison’s Disease is the great pretender in that it mimics many illness, and patients are routinely dismissed and sent home with a bottle of pills, and given some vague diagnosis such as flu, fatigue, female or male difficulties, backache, headache, or just plain hypochondria. Addison’s Disease is also rare with only a 1 to 100,000 ratio. With such odds, a doctor could conceivably spend his entire career without encountering a single case of Addison’s Disease.
Addison Disease seems to arise between the age of thirty to fifty, and has no known cause. Apparently, it just happens, and the lucky recipient can expect to exhaust an entire line of physicians in several…

Thursday’s Tale: A Murder of Crows — Carol’s Notebook
Vincent Van Gogh – Wheat Field with Crows I was listening to A Great Reckoning the other day and it mentioned that the phrase “a murder of crows” came from folklore. I knew the phrase but never knew where it came from, so I though it would be a perfect story to share today. There’s…
chasing the sun
Beautiful….
At this time of year I chase the sun even if that only means I race up the spiral staircase in my home to the highest window to see how the light changes over time in the distant sky.
And just as I thought I was done and walked back down the stairs to download images and such, I looked out the lower window and saw that the sky had turned from gold to orange.
And then, yes once more, when I thought I was done and had walked back down the stairs to download images and compose this post, I looked up. The sky was a wonderful pinkish-red. I decided to watch the sky grow dark instead of racing back up those stairs.

When I Died…
I stopped living when I died. 20 years ago I became ill. The first time I knew something was wrong it was Easter, I became a skeleton, my hair fell out, my eyes sunk into my head, I was yellow with jaundice. I could not stand or sit, I felt like I needed to lay down but already was. I didn’t eat. I only slept. I was dying and no one new why. A family friend, not my mother, not my brother, a friend decided she wasn’t going to just sit and watch me die. I barely remember her carrying me to the van, I don’t remember the drive, I remember being pushed into the emergency room in Portland and they started to hook me up to machines before even knowing my name. My blood pressure was so low they couldn’t get a reading. I lost all my muscle and was 90 pounds at 5’6.They say I died. They said I was gone for a quick moment and the adrenaline they administered was what saved me but also made them realize what I had. I was diagnosed with Addisons Disease and hypothyroidism, that was November. No one lived that long before when your adrenal glands stop working, they stop. I poured salt into my mouth all the time, I craved it. The dr’s say that’s what saved me. I lost a part of me that day. I have survived since then, but not lived. I was an extreme extrovert as a teen, now I hardly leave my house for days or weeks at a time. Yes, I have had more issues arise and many more health issues have been found but inside I no it started that day, the day I died.
Mottos
Skateboard stroller..
I didn’t think I was that out of touch on the newest baby gear but I must be because I have never seen this before!!! I guess that is for an older child to stand on while you are pushing baby in the stroller. That just seems like an awsome idea to me!!!!
