Hi, my name is Chrissy
 
            Hi everyone. New here. My name is Chrissy, I live in Hampshire. I'm 67 and I suffer with a few bits and bobs. Mainly moderate to severe ME, a touch of COPD occasionally, I wear hearing aids, and I'm on the waiting list for autism and ADHD assessment. Probably type 1 autism and inattentive ADHD. Ok so that's the negative side of my life. On the positive side of it I have four amazing cats who keep me company here and provide oodles of love. I have an Australian Mist named Arfur Crown, a Burmese named BB King, a little rescue moggy named Rosie (named after Sister Rosetta Tharpe), and 9 months old Maine **** called Etta, named after Etta James. Three of the cats names reflect the other joy in my life which is blues and rock music. Anyway I thought I would drop in and say hello and just give you a snapshot . Thanks for reading this far, Chrissy.
