Subject: [ROOTS-L] How old was I

I had heard stories all my life but never thought anything about them.....then I got really sick in 2000 at the age of 45.....No one could figure out what was wrong and I started calling relatives.Now my mom had died when she was 40. my grandparents when they were in thier 60's so that started me thinking...Anything one thing lead to another and since I could not do anything but sit in a wheelchair during my waking times I would get on the computer and soon I was hooked......Then I met a cousin on line who was doing research and he came out on business and stopped to see me.....he made copies of what he had and I went from there.
IF nothing else while doing your research write down what people died from, any major illnesses they had even if does not seem important. IF I had the info I have now it would have saved me from some very unpleasant testing....by the way  I am now walking again and what caused me not to is generic.
