Welcome back to THE PICKLE JAR for episode 100. WOW...unbelievable the PICKLE JAR in a short period of time has reached 100 episodes. Haley's fight with Addison's disease is the best way to commemorate this accomplishment.

Haley was diagnosed with Addison's disease just over 4 years ago at the age of 21 when she was near death in the ICU after being found unconscious. Thankfully a diagnosis was made and Haley was given the gift of life. More obstacles and illness have confronted her in the last 4 years but she has the EYE OF THE TIGER...and she is a fighter.

She is not letting illness stop her from living. With unconditional love and support from her family and friends, she is proving she is a champion.

Her story will LIGHT YOUR FIRE. Her story will INSPIRE you. Her story will give you HOPE.

    Haley, what a journey! You are truly a warrior! I wanted to share a couple of my experiences which I hope will give you some piece of mind. First, I am in my late 50’s. I was diagnosed with Addison’s 21 years ago when my youngest child was a year old. Looking back, I had several years of symptoms & deterioration prior to diagnosis. However, I was able to get through 2 pregnancies and was blessed with 2 beautiful healthy children. They r both in their early 20’s now & thriving. Second, my mom had Type 1 diabetes & as a result went blind in her early 20’s. Back then they did not want her to have children because of her diabetes. When she became pregnant with me they wanted her to have an abortion. She refused & here I am! She was also an amazing warrior! I hope that your journey through pregnancy & parenthood brings you much joy.
