I'm a 41 year old woman who is happily married to my loving husband. We live in the northeast part of South Dakota. I'm currently disabled due to being bitten twice by mosquitos that both carried the neuroinvasive form of the West Nile virus with meningitis and encephalitis. My husband opened up my world again when he bought me a laptop for Christmas this past year so that I could be a part of the world again instead of just being stuck in the house while he's at work because I'm not allowed to drive anymore due to the risk of seizures brought on by the 2nd dose of West Nile. My days are mostly spent in my bedroom which is my sanctuary where I have my pets as company and my stereo for music and my fountain and plants and candles all around me to give me peace.
