Thank you Kim, Dale, Tonya, and Rain from the bottom of my heart. You guys keep me going on a daily basis. I have never been so completely happy and content with my life as I am now. I have true friends that I can count on and rely on and who can do the same of me. I have a fabulous fiance who treats me like a queen and I have two new extended families.. this one and Stuart's family as well. I feel like I have struck gold. Thank you all for your continuing friendships and support.
Today is my one year post-op with Dr. C.. I still can't believe it's been a year. In some ways I think.. wow I've made it.. I'm finally a long term post op.. in other ways I am sad.. It's over.. this incredible journey is over..

Then I realize that it's not truly over.. it's only just begun.. I have so many wonderful things to look forward to and I know now that I can look forward to them because I will be alive to see them happen. My marriage, children, and getting that career I have always wanted.. the doors are open wide for me and I am planning on keeping them that way.
Thank you all again.. you know I love ya!!!
