A wow moment!
This morning my towel fit around me. Ok...so it's a big towel...but it's never fit around me before....I was smilin inside and very proud of my progress. I talked with my Dad this weekend and talked about my progress, I felf his pride in me and I get teary eyed just thinking about our conversation. That in itself was a miracle because you see my dad has the beginnings of alzheimers and dementia and has suffered some strokes and has some brain damage and sometimes he doesn't know me and he gets confused about just his surroundings...then there are times when I talk to him that I just treasure because you wouldn't know anything was wrong. I feel blessed this morning anyway and good about myself.
Wow Lori... we have a lot in common, my dad has begining alzheimers, and has also recently suffered a minor stroke. I'm glad you had that talk with your dad when he had some clarity. Those moments are really precious. And I totally understand about the towel... it's amazing isn't it??? Yay all of us for working so hard and having it pay off!
CONGRATS!!!! I know what you mean i get teary eyed when i think or talk about my trip to the OR and how i was crying and the surgeon said do you want to chaneg your mind and i cried harder no i said this is the beginng of y new life..(im teary now and i am just typing it) How amazing it has been and where i am now...we all have so much to be thankful for.

I know...it's quite a change in our lives. This morning I was riding my bike and thinking...you know...what a significant difference there is in my life today as compared to a year ago. I guess that's why I smile as I ride. I feel so much free'er. Well have to get back to work but thanks so much for the encouragement! What a ride huh?
Congrats Lori
