Hello to all ARD friends:
I have been an ARD sufferer for many, many years with 15 surgeries. I
have posted here mamy years ago. Once a beautiful friend here helped me
through
tough times, when I was with lots of pain and emotional break downs due
to feeling lonely with this horrible condition. I live in Puerto Rico
and here no one knows about ARD. Now, again, I'm in a lot of pain, no
one to talk to and explain my frustration and agony. I don't want
another surgery, my last one was a year ago. My stomach, belly button
and intestines were all stuck together, each organ out of their original
abdominal area. I'm disable, can't work due to adhesions. I would like
to know if there is someone in Puerto Rico or close that I can email to.
My email address is satintigerpr@hotmail.com. That nice friend that
helped me is from a close island but can't remember her name. She would
call me at my home and that felt so good to know someone cared and
understood me. I would love to contact her again and know how she's
doing. To all my ARD sufferer friends I know how you feel. God bless
you all and hope all of you receive the best care and be pain free for
ever. Eileen Rivera
