Good Pennies from Heaven

When I first logged on to Patientslikeme.com their was a lady posting under the name Ukelady and it never crossed my mind that UK meant an instrument I though it meant living in the United Kingdom. In her profile picture she wore dark rim glasses and gave no hint of the very talented little old hippy that was dwelling within. She posted that she was going to be in the San Francisco Unity Walk and needed support. I read this and decided instantly that her and Btrflynana needed to meet so they could walk together and walk they did. Now the closest of friends and visiting all the time. In November I boarded a plan and flew to California to meet these two and what an amazing pair had formed. Marian would still put those glasses on but way down on her nose and look over them like a little kid who was getting caught at it. She's a tiny little thing with beautiful long hair and the things that go on in that brain. She refers to herself as a math geek.....She is actually a space engineer for Lockhead Martin. She does beautiful bead work and just recently designed the Tee Shirts and Hats for Team Patientslikeme . They are selling at cost on Cafe Press and are a work of art. Depicted on the shirt are two tulips. One is standing tall and the other is drooping, being held up by a thread(Internet thread). I just love it and hope she sell thousands......While I was in Californina, I had Marian sign a tee shirt I have traveled with all year and she did as Ukelady. This may be her last signature as Ukelady. Very soon after she changed her name to GoodPenny and it stuck.....I am so happy to see this little gal just grow into her potential. Marian has Parkinson's and is still going. Check out he blog...http://WalkingMyPathWithParkinsons.blogspot.com and please go to Cafe Press and check out the hats and shirts. I can guarantee you there is more to come...goodnight pokie
