My Heart Felt Gratitude To My DiabeticsSockShop.com Customers - "Thank You"!
From The Desk Of Marcus R Hall
I just want to say "Thank You" to all of my supporting customers at my DiabeticsSockShop.com.
Let me relay the story of my diabetic sock shop.
In 2009 my Diabetics Sock Shop was little more than an idea, to prepare for my retirement; which was to follow another 9-10 years later.
During my career as a Nuclear Medicine Technologist, I used the funds I had saved for retirement to help others...because, I had a good paying job, and could always earn the money back.
In 2010, I officially started my DiabeticsSockShop and started selling diabetic socks on EBay, my DiabeticsSockShop.com website, and my shop.DiabeticsSockShop.com web store; all in preparation for a supplemental retirement income.
My plan was to replace the funds I had spent in caring for others; prior to my retirement.
Little did I know, I would have a medical downfall of my own, and my DiabeticsSockShop would help me support myself.
In 2011 my Mother passed away from medical complications from several medical conditions, placing the stress of her probate on me, with the stress of my career which had steadily increased over my 20 plus years working in various hospitals.
I bore the stress for a couple of more years until my body finally said enough was enough.
It was at this point my body started a shut down, and I developed symptoms of a stroke. I still have some mild symptoms, as I have recuperated over the major symptoms.
Over night I went from a $70k a year job, to medical disability. I had to spend my retirement savings to survive on, and my DiabeticsSockShop, gave me more money to survive on.
I have since recuperated from my physical and financial woes, thanks to many new friends and opportunities they introduced me too; as well as the support of my diabetic sock customers.
I still run my diabetic sock shop, as I am a diabetic myself... interestingly enough, can be brought on by chronic stress, lack of proper sleep, and diet....all of which were caused by my career of 20 years.
I wish I had turned to the Internet as a mode of income sooner than I did; although the technology, and my knowledge hadn't always been as it is now.
If you are interested in starting a web based business, or take your current business to the next level, you may want to visit my Tidbits To Success blog; where I share some tidbits of information that have helped make me and my endeavours successful.
In the meantime, as Thanksgiving approaches, I offer all my DiabeticsSockShop customers, Web Site Supporters and all of my blog supporters my humble gratitude and a hearty "Thank You" and "Happy Thanksgiving"!
