Hello! My name is Annette Markin. I'm a 54 year old woman fighting a rare lung disease called, Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension. I was diagnosed on June 29, 2004 (my husband's birthday). On July 15th I began a treatment called, Flolan. It is administered continuously through a central line that has been surgically implanted in my chest by a portable, battery operated pump. I'm also on oxygen 24/7. As you can imagine, the disease and the medicine are a bit of a challenge. The love and support of my wonderful husband Rod (married 31 years and counting) and our two sons, Nick (28 and married to a beautiful woman named Kara and proud owner of a fat cat named Ivan) and Chris (26 a professional photographer with a goofy dog named Deoje)and other loving family members and friends make this fight less challenging. My faith in God provides me with hope for a cure for this now incurable disease. Please learn more about Pulmonary Hypertension at: www.phassociation.org
