All About Me!



Hi, I'm Lori. I'm 35 yrs. old and I've been married to my husband Kevin for 12 yrs. We don't have any children but I will be getting my service dog Omar at the end of January, 2009. He's a yello lab and I'm sure he will bring alot to my life. I'm a Physically Disabled Big Beautiful Woman. I was born with a blood & bone disease called Thrombocytopenia and Absent Radius Syndrome aka TAR Syndrome. If you would like more information about it please go here http://www.ivh.se/TAR/contents.htm. I'm very down to earth, open minded and non-judgmental. I accept people for who they are. My Spiritual Beliefs are a big part of my life. I also have an interest in Alternative Lifestyles. Please feel welcomed to add me as a friend, leave me comments and message me with any questions you may have.
