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

I’m thankful, too, Susan. I’m especially thankful for Mary Kelly O’Connor, who made our meeting each other and other patients possible through her site, www.cushings-help.com. Without all of you and the real advice and advocacy I got there, I don’t think I’d be here. I love my Cushing’s friends! We’ve been down a road nobody else can possibly understand.

Yesterday I read my blog from beginning to end. It was rather emotional for me but I’m so glad I documented as much as I did because I have forgotten a lot of details. What I kept thinking was how much http://cushings-help.com was what got me through, all the information and the support from forum members kept me going. I was going to send you a message to thank you but decided it needed to be said publicly. Thank you so much, you saved my family.

Rare disease day was yesterday. The woman who wrote this article is one of the first I met in my journey with Cushing’s Disease. She has helped save many lives by putting a name to a random collection of symptoms that so often get dismissed by the medical community.

What am I doing for Rare Disease Day? For me, it’s more that one day out of the year. Each and every day since 1987, I tell anyone who will listen about Cushin…
