new here

[Guest guest]

hi,

 I am new and also fairly new to being a veggie. I am the only one in my family

but my husband eats very little meat.

 I do it as I love animals a lot. I live surrounded by sheep ,lambs and cattle

so why would I want to eat them.

 I am 59(ouch) but in 2007 I started being ill with loads of vertigoes and the

dr sent me for blood tests and I was found to have type 2 diabetes. My father

had it in his 60's. I have lost weight but am finding it hard to maintain,thats

why I have joined.

 I live in NW of England, in a village..well on the side of a hill actually.

 I have 3 grown up family and 2 grandchildren 7 and 5. We have 2 rescued dogs

and 2 elderly cats and another cat has been here tonight. We have fed it and it

has an outbuilding to sleep in. My husband does a lot for the local shelter so

he will try and get it a new home if no-one claims it. My youngest Molly doesn't

like cats(they told us she had lived with 4 cats but I am not sure) Also my

cousin left her budgie and now she don't want it back. So there you are...now I

look forward to reading your posts. Sandra  from a sunny England...at the mo!
