Endometriosis

Onagh Hopke (Levy) has had an Internet presence since 1994.  Her first Blog entered the net in 1998 with a series of custom web pages focused on her on going battle with Endometriosis, hosted on the now closed Xoom and Flashcom.

By the late summer and fall of 1998, Onagh had become seriously ill due to complications with Stage IV Chronic Endometriosis.  During her time of illness, she self taught HTML Hand Coding, and VBA for Applications, and focused her studies on the creation of web pages designed for Blogs and Personal Home Pages.

It was during this time that Ona’s Library, along with the Endometriosis Blog, was established at Yahoo GeoCities, formerly www.geocities.com/girleegeek  The pages remained active on the internet from 1999 through 2008.

Along the way, the Blog expanded in 2003 to MySpace and again in 2006 to MSN Spaces, where it was re-labeled The Jamaica Inn (Excuse Me While I Collect Myself).  Finally in 2010, the entire 12 years of Blog History was consolidated at The Jamaica Inn at Wordpress.com.

During that same period, 1999 to 2010, Onagh’s Web Footprint and Social Network expanded to include Facebook, Twitter, Ning and LinkedIn.



Onagh has suffered from Endometriosis and the long term side effects for the treatment of Endometriosis for 30 years.  Despite her battle with Endometriosis, Onagh enjoys a successful career as an Information Technology Program Manager across broad industries.
