Cindy, I understand what you are saying I have a completely different life. I enjoy life now and have a great appreciation for it. I was not in a wheelchair, but I had such a hard time getting around. My health has improved so much and I am pround of myself and proud to be around my family now. I was always embaressed before I wanted to shrink in the corner. I can walk by people I use to know now and they don't even recogonise me. I went to visit my reletives after a long time and my brother and others didn't know who I was. I told them I am the person I should have been all along. Living and loving life. Pamela

How heart warming and inspiring it is to hear your story. Congratulations on your new found life. Enjoy it because you deserve it!! I wait eagerly for that day too and the more I hear others getting there, the more I realize I need to get the ball rolling again with this surgery. I have been a bit down and out lately and have not really been working towards it. Just been in my cave as usual. Thank you for sharing this. I am getting out of this cave and getting these appointments rolling!!! Thanks and congrats again!!!

I'm pretty amazed at someone who could post a 185 word "statement" to this forum and NOT EMPLOY EVEN A SINGLE PUNCTUATION MARK! That makes it pretty hard to read and comprehend. I suggest you heed the OH advice to "Make sure you check your work closely before submitting".
