For those who dont know me, my name is Barb. I was born in Melbourne, Australia,the
month of July - making me a Cancerian, and Im 46 years young. Ive always lived in Melbourne, mostly in the Eastern suburbs.
I have 4 children and 2 grandchildren. You will get to know more about my family in the following pages.
I worked as a Disability Instructor, with intellectually disabled adults,
doing Day Programs. It can be very challenging and emotionally draining work, but I love it. In November 2005, it was decided
that I was unable to perform my duties at work to the standard required, so I was given noticed, and will not be returning.
Im also involved with the local Little Athletics Centre, and this takes up
a lot of my 'spare' time. I dont have kids competing, as they are now too old. I've been on several of the Committees at Little
Athletics over the last 15 years, and am currently the Centre Secretary.
I have been under the guidance of Commonwealth Rehab. Services (CRS), and
am looking into other work or study opportunities.
Hope you enjoy viewing the rest of my site, and getting to know a little
about my life, thoughts, and how we are coping with MS.
