Here's Barb Delgiudices's Bio:
Hello Friends,

I was born in Seattle Washington in 1953. My grandparents immigrated from Italy on my Dad’s side and Sweden and Germany on my Mom’s side. My Grandpa Del was a street sweeper and my Grandpa Westman was an electrician. I went to a Catholic grade school and high school. Then I went to a public high school for my junior and senior year. I really enjoyed Highline High. It was so much more relaxed and less pressure. I had a nervous breakdown in junior year in Kennedy High. I have been taking medications ever since. Tranquilizers for a long time and new generation antidepressants (generic Effexor and generic Wellbutrin) since 1995. Thank God for the newer antidepressants! I was in the slow classes in grade school and Kennedy High. The kids said I was retarded, dumb and made fun of me.

I went partially blind in kindergarten when my left eye crossed and would not straighten out. I was completely devastated, that I could not see well or read well. I did not do well in grade school. I finally got my eye operated on in the 4th grade. I was always so dizzy even with my glasses on before the operation. I was also depressed because my Mom went into the mental hospital from when I was in kindergarten until I was in the 6th or 7th grade. My Dad was always away on business. He was married to his job. My parents loved us very much but did not know how to show love. Luckily my faith in God helped me through all of this. I was always praying in church. Unfortunately my faith made us fear God. I don’t fear God anymore now. Things have changed so people are not taught to fear God so much.

Anyway this all took a toll on me and my older brother and 2 sisters. We managed to survive and my brother has a garbage business in Plains Montana, 3 children and grand children and his second wife in Montana. My oldest sister doesn’t work now, she is retired and has one grown child and one deceased child and my other sister lives with my Mom and helps take care of her. I lived with an abusive boy friend for 19 years because I didn’t know anything else beyond that. I am unsuccessful financially because I had to leave a company I worked for 16 years because of verbal abuse and was made to work in a room that was extremely difficult to do my job in. I put up with it for a long time, but could not take it anymore. I had to leave. It broke my heart. I developed are very bad case of carpel tunnel syndrome in my hands and arthritis. It’s hard to type a lot, and I get very tired.. That’s why I drink all those health drinks. I also take ballet classes to keep me in shape, and the stretching helps a lot. Ballet classes help my vision , memory and acts as moving meditation. I have been taking classes for 13 years. I am not that great at ballet, but it sure makes me feel better and helps my posture and health.

Since 2002 I have been trying to market online. I have been through all the scams and fly-by-night schemes and know pretty much what will work or not. Except I am still not doing good with this. There are too many programs out there and too much competition. There is a new program or product every week! I have been too slow and tired to do very well with my marketing. I lost a friend in October 2007 in Afganastan. I had been emailing him for seven years and we were looking forward to getting together after he got back. My Mom has been very sick since before January 2008. She is 89 years old now. Mom had a heart attack in 2000 right after 9/11. My sister and I have been helping her out since. But then my poor Mom got congestive heart failure last Fall and had to lay down all the time with her feet higher than her head. Then she fell and broke her arm and fractured her hip and left leg and sprained her left ankle. She was in the nursing home from February 29th to about April 11th. She almost died, so they finally released her. My brother, sisters, and me were always visiting her and making sure she would be ok. But she hated it there so much she wouldn’t eat and got so thin she was skin and bones and too weak to lift her head. It was hard to believe that the doctor would not let us take her to her house. She had the money to hire help. Luckily they released her in the nick of time. We didn’t know if she would make it at first, but she made it thank God. She can sit up now in her wheel chair and is eating. May 15th was my birthday and the sun was out. She was able to be wheeled out on the porch and enjoy the sun, birthday cake and friends . Thank God.

I was also going to have to move out of my apartment because it was being converted into a condo, but it got postponed again and I hope for a long time.  I keep praying I don't have to move from my pretty woods with all my squirrels and birds that I feed.

My 2 cockatiels (little parrots), Baby and Beenie have helped me get through so much and helped me evolve into a better person. I got Baby 11 years ago and Beenie 4 and a half years ago. I had a parakeet Buddy for 8 years. He was like a father to Baby. My birds are my little angels. I never neglect them or ignore them. I make sure they are happy and get enough attention. Petting them and taking care of them is very healing to me. They are very loving and emotional creatures. I see God in my pretty birds.

I have finally decided the best thing to market is an associate program that is free and sells things that everyone needs like Amazon.com. They have a free associate program, and it has everything under the sun to shop for. Another great program to join is Wholefood Farmacy. I joined under LaNell and Thomas Richmond. I love the Cornucopia, Phi Plus and Sublime body cream. You can lose weight eating high fiber, nutrient dense food. The food is great! I also like my healthy juices that help fight my fatigue. They are on my blog. I also sell Parrot training courses which are extremely well done buy Chet and Dave Womach. Their videos are fantastic and they have a magic touch when training their birds. Please join my free newsletter, “Digital Products That Help Your Business”and get free ads, gifts, tips, advice.

Thank you so much for your votes.

Big Hugs.

Barb :)

Hello Barb,

It's amazing when reads your life story, we all have up's and downs, but going though what you have been through, is truly a  life's amazing story.

YOu certainly have lots of guts and will power where many would will fail to live up to the kind of  situations that you have been though.
