I am a WEGO Health Community Leader presently for the Autism forum. I was born and raised in Pennsylvania, moved to West Virginia in 1980 before the birth of my first child. I had a major brain surgery in 1997 which left me totally disabled. The tumor was an Acoustic Neuroma, which wasn't cancerous. I have come a long way and now am raising a 3½ year old with autism. He is the light of my life! .
