I give thanks for all of you daily as I have hope now that persistence will pay off and I’ll have a diagnosis soon, and I wouldn’t have ever been able to have that hope without this site! Thank you MaryO!!

Today is National Cushing’s Awareness Day.

My story with Cushing’s has been shared before. I was laughed at, ridiculed, and told to “diet and exercise” for many, many years by doctors who had no clue what I had. I had no clue. It took over 25 years with this disease before I finally saw a doctor who cared and helped me. I had Cushing’s Disease. Now to fix my new health issues I have a secondary form of Cushing’s bit thanks to Mary Kelly O’Connor and the support she has created for thousands of people I am stronger and ready for the fight.

Found your sites and am so grateful to read information that is informative, hopeful and honest.

I remember my first guest post in 2007, was overjoyed to find I wasn’t the only medical anomaly lol!

Congratulations to Cushing’s Help for coming of age! 😁

I accepted the challenge by Caroline Hastings to post the covers of seven books I love — no explanation, no review, just the covers. Each time I post a cover I’ll ask a friend to take up the challenge as well.

Today I challenge a wonderful woman who I really admire Mary Kelly O’Connor who can disregard if she’s already been tagged or doesn’t want to take part (completely understand as I know these posts can be annoying) but I just wanted to select you because as the founder of the website www.cushings-help.com that saved my life when I was diagnosed and I made some wonderful life-long friends all across the World as a result. I am so glad I found that website and the beautiful souls that shared their stories and wealth of knowledge.

The book I have chosen is special and relates to that time when I was questioning why it was all happening to me and my family. Thank you Mary xx
