Hello and date.

YOU KNOW, MS KYLEE ... GOD TELLS US THAT WE MEET HIS ANGELS WITHOUT EVEN KNOWING IT ... WELL, I TRULY BELIEVE THAT HE ALSO TOUCHES THE HEARTS OF THOSE WHO WILL LISTEN TO HIM TO BE HIS "ANGELS ON EARTH" FOR OTHERS IN NEED. NICK & I HAVE HAD IT PRETTY HARD EVER SINCE WE MET IN 2000. THERE REALLY HASN'T BEEN ANY TIME OF PEACE IN WHICH WE DIDN'T HAVE TO "FIGHT" FOR SOMETHING MAJOR. I HAD PLEADED WITH THE LORD TO PLEASE ALLOW THIS SURGERY & ALL WE WOULD GO THROUGH GO SMOOTHLY & BE OUR TIME OF "PEACE" IN THE MIDST OF THIS LARGE CHALLENGE & MAJOR LIFESTYLE CHANGE. I WAS SO VERY HUMBLED AT THE # OF PEOPLE WHO CONTACTED ME & SAID THAT THEY WERE PRAYING FOR ME ... &, THANKFULLY MY SWEET LORD HEARD & ANSWERED THOSE WONDERFUL PRAYERS FROM PEOPLE ALL OVER THE USA WHO I MAY NEVER MEET ... BUT, WHO ALLOWED THEIR HEARTS & PRAYERS TO REACH OUT TO NICK & I ... MY JOURNEY HAS BEEN SO SMOOTH THAT NICK & I ARE AMAZED. SO, MS KYLEE ... NICK & I SEND OUR DEEPEST APPRECIATION TO YOU FOR HELPING SOMEONE YOU'VE NEVER EVEN MET TO ENJOY A PEACEFUL, JOYFUL JOURNEY TO GOOD HEALTH. WE ARE TRULY ENDEBTED TO YOU. KNOW THAT OUR PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU AS YOU BEGIN THIS WONDEROUS JOURNEY & OUR FRIENDSHIP IS OFFERED ... YOU'LL BE AMAZED AT THE WONDERFUL PEOPLE AT LCBBuddies. WE CAN'T WAIT TO MEET YOU & YOUR HUBBY . I SAT HERE IN TEARS VERY HUMBLED AT THE KINDNESS OF A STRANGER TOWARDS NICK & I. I CALLED HIM IN HERE JUST TO READ YOUR POST. THANK YOU "ANGEL GIRL"! GOD BLESS Y'ALL DAWN & NICK

Blessing right back at you Lady D. You are an angel yourself. I look forward to finally getting to meet you in person. I personally know plenty in the way of struggles. Everything from neglect, abuse, to homelessness. Though I dont' think you are ever given anything that you can't survive, and everything no matter how horrible or mundane is a lesson to be learned. And I have learned plenty... would probably explain why I feel so dang old. Anyway nothing feels better than knowing that you have someone in your corner that knows you can prosper even when you have doubts in yourself. To give you that extra boost when you need it. I am soo glad that you have had such a smooth journey thus far with your surgery . You are a wonderful woman and deserve nothing less. It iwll get better. You just have to keep looking toward the future. That is what I do.

FUNNY YOU SHOULD TALK ABOUT WHY WE GO THROUGH HARD THINGS IN LIFE ... ANOTHER WLS FRIEND & I TALKED ABOUT JUST THAT SUBJECT SHORTLY AGO ... WE AGREED THAT WE FELT THAT WHAT WE HAD TO GO THROUGH HAPPENED, AT LEAST PARTIALLY, SO WE COULD HELP OTHERS IN SIMILAR SIUTATIONS. JUST A SHORT TIME AGO, SHE WAS IN A SITUATION WHERE SHE COULD HELP A YOUNG LADY FIND HER STRENGTH THROUGH A VERY SIMILAR, HORRIBLE SITUATION TO WHAT SHE HAD ENDURED. &, SEVERAL MONTHS AGO, ONE OF MY DEAR FRIENDS FOUND HERSELF IN LIFE-STOPPING DEPRESSION ... SOMETHING I HAD EXPERIENCED ... &, BEING HER FRIEND, SHE KNEW SHE COULD TRUST ME. SHE TOOK MY ADVISE ... DOORS BEGAN TO OPEN UP ... SITUATIONS CHANGED & BECAUSE SHE WAS ALREADY GETTING PROFESSIONAL HELP, SHE WAS 10 STEPS AHEAD & READY TO WALK INTO A NEW PART OF HER LIFE LEAVING THE DEPRESSION BEHIND. SHE, IN TURN, TOLD ME THAT BECAUSE I HELPED HER, SHE WAS GOING TO USE HER EXPERIENCES WITH DEPRESSION TO HELP OTHERS!! AN UNBREAKABLE LINE ... THAT GIVES GREAT VALUE TO ME FOR THE TERRIBLE THINGS I WENT THROUGH ... NOW, THEY ARE OF BENEFIT, NOT ABLE TO DESTROY ANY LONGER. WELL, YOU'LL FIND THE MOST SUPPORTIVE LADIES AT LCBBuddies, SO SEE YOU THRUSDAY. GOD BLESS YOU DAWN & NICK

Kylee, I am so happy for you. I hope that you enjoy the ride of your life. And Happy Birthday to your son. I have Tricare and it took 5-6 weeks to hear from them on my approval. But it was because my initial referral didn't say "Eval & Treat". Good Luck Britt

I already double checked to make sure that is did say eval and treat. Yet another thing that I learned on here. I tell ya, between all the reasearch (2+years) tha ti have done, I don't think i ahve found any other site, or group of people more helpful than you all hare. I love it here. You have beginning my journey so much easier than I ever imagined.

Kylee- I know how exciting it is to get the good news of a date! Congratulations and you'll be on the losing side soon!!!

Hello Kylee.... I know you are excited ...Your special day will be here before you know it... I wish you many of prayers and hope everything goes great for you.... Just remember we are all here for you if you have any questions... Best of luck...Brenda..
