My first grade Teacher.......

I'm now 40 yrs old and have had Addison's for 5 years now I believe. A good friend of mine called and said, "you'll never believe who has what you have"........I asked WHO?????????? Because if you know anything about this disease, it's rare. You don't have it like diabetes etc ever other home down the road...she finally told me, our first grade teacher who's name I shall leave anonymous because I didn't ask her permission. OOps....I'm in trouble again. She still lives in our hometown, as do I and still lives 5 min or less away. How rare is that? We've reconnected after 35 years of not seeing or talking to her but I would always glance at her home as I drove by almost daily and wonder how she was. She was my favorite, sweetest, prettiest, coolest teacher and still looks the same today. I've been able to share experiences and actually help her along some and she shares with me. I love her dearly and maybe the reason behind this all was for our "illness" we now share.........
