You're a true inspiration! Thanks for your lovely message. I have more admiration for you than I can ever express.

Okay, I'm an idiot. Yeah, we knew that already. I just realized this section existed, where we could get and give private messages. So...thanks, everyone, for your support. If I had known you were leaving me messages here, I would have responded before now, instead of seeming ungrateful for your concern. I am touched, truly I am. I can't have the surgery to get everything fixed, but that's okay. I've lived with this monster for almost six years, and will continue to. I am incredibly happy, incredibly blessed in my life. My husband is beyond wonderful, my child is the light of my life. I am surrounded by family, friends and coworkers that make my life so very happy. No, I am not going to survive this illness. But I am going to live my life to the absolute limit in the time I have, and I am not going to whine, moan or groan about what I have lost. Because the truth is, I have lost nothing. I have gained perspective, love, friendship, and peace. There is pain, there is turmoil, there are emotions. I don't want to leave my husband and my son and my family. I'm having too much fun in this life to want to leave it. But I've never been a whiner, and I'm not about to start now. If I do, then the monster has won, and that is something I refuse to allow to happen. It may take my life, but it will not take my spirit, my joy, or the essence of all that I am. It can have my body. But it can not have my soul.
So thank you, so very much, for thinking of me and pulling for me. I don't talk about this a lot because it isn't my intention to drag people down, but I appreciate your support, more than you know.

Let me add to the good wishes! I've thought about you a lot the last few months and I'm sure I'm not the only one. Welcome back, babe.

Hey! You're back! I'm assuming you're well, since you're here. YAAAY!
