Something Interesting in the last 20 Years:My husband and I traveled and partied together for many years before we started our family. We are best friends and enjoy our life, crazy as it may be sometimes. I worked at Universtiy Hospital for 16 years the last 6 years being Manager in the Trauma area before leaving. We had our son 7 years ago enjoying every minute with him not paying any attention (1 Christmas party and many draft beers....), got pregnant and had twins 18 months later. Daniel is 7 and Cole and Sydney will be 6 next month. After a few broken bones with the kids and a medical condition with one of our twins, I decided to move my career path to Children's hospital. Anyone making a trip to Children's in the Ortho area, ask for me! I wish everyone the best in life and hope you are all happy and well. Don't think I can make the party but we will see? Take care and Thank you for all the work put into this website - fantastic job!!!!!
