Hi!

I just wanted to wish you all Happy Surgiversary! I know i disappeared to other OH boards and haven't really kept up. For that i apologize. my life is 1000 times better today than two years ago and i suspect most of us could say the same. I live in Michigan now, am healthier than i've ever been, wear a size 34 pants and am marrying a gorgeous fellow g.a.p. on September 8th. I wish you all the best and once again thank you all for the support you gave me freely when it was needed. Special hello to Tim and Nancy who I know from another board.

You have not even begun to put into words how different and better your life is now. You are one of the happiest men I know and I love that about you! I am very happy for all of us but especially happy for you and for Mel! Have a great day

Thank you so much Nancy! You are so right, there are no words. We miss you.
