I saw her today

You know that girl...........the one who always hid inside  since a very young age shes been there ive known it all along.........but now shes grown up, she was in my shadow, she has curves instead of rolls and walks strongly and stoicly with her head up with the knowledge she did the absolute best thing in the world she could do for her, she has become the butterfly she was always meant to be. I saw her today ......walking up that hill without skipping a beat, she looked to the sun and smiled glad to finally be released from her cell(s) and truly believing she will never be there again because she is going to be the best she can be and that includes making the right choices and being more active in the world around her. I saw her today.............the only sadness she had was that her parents arent here anymore to see the beautiful person she has always been, (but maybe they did hmmmm?) but they cant be here to dance with her and celebrate the real importance of life with her anymore, they can****ch as she skips through the flowers to bring them home for the best mom in the world like she really wants to do...........espescially for the warning her mother brought her through her brave and frightening fight with diabetes and all its horrifying side effects, they cannot meet the man who saved her life, thank you very much Dr. Kevin Krause you are my hero. I saw her today......................a woman looking forward to a life of LIVING, not sitting on the sidelines watching it go by, looking forward to being taken as a human being with feelings and opinions not just being an inconvenient yet soft bump in the road for other people. Before my life altering decision, i was simply waiting for all the ill effects of the human killer diabetes to leach my life away one single inch at a time painfully.............Now im looking forward to a long and wonderful dance, with all the trimmings.  I look forward to being there and doing things for and with all of you, you too are my heroes too thank you for being there and accompanying me along this wondrous, wonderful journey. God bless ya all hugz kat

I truly hope it lifted your heart that is what it was intended hugz dear one kat

Wow!  Outstandingly said!  You brought this "old timer" back into the real world!  Sometimes you get so busy with your "new" life and "new" look that you forget what life was like before and what life could have been if not for our life saving surgery.  I have always been thankful to Dr Wood for giving me a new life, but sometimes I forget to thank myself for the wonderful new life that I have!  Thanks again and have a BEAUTIFUL Saturday! ":-D"
