Say Hello
Hello Everyone,
My username is Sheelee. I'm a young 66 year old osteoarthritis sufferer. I have particular problems with my left hip and knee-particularly the tendinitis in my knee.
I've been trying to get on to.the on line community for a year (not the greatest techo expert!!), but really needed somewhere to go where there were people who could understand what it's like having to cope with this ***condition, and all the life changes it brings.
Hope I can offer support to other people too.
I do suffer with depression at times, and find it hard to adjust to not being able to just do things. At least I don't have people dependent upon me. That must make things even more difficult, though, of course you can feel devoid of support at times, living alone.
Anyway, hope to get some of you over time.
Best wishes,
Sheila 😀👍
