Three Years and Counting
Today is my 3 year surgery anniversary! I can't believe it has already been that long. This journey has been quite the ride but at the start of this journey I never thought it would be such an awesome and dream inspiring journey. Even with the few complications I have had no one could ever pay me enough to go back to where I was 3 years ago. The health benefits alone have made this journey worth it but the actual feeling of being able to live life, enjoy the day and embrace this process....well there are no words. I have dreams now. Dreams I never thought I would have and I am so excited to see where those dreams bring me.
To all of you who have been my support, my listening ear during those tough times and to those of you who have faith in me....all I can say is thank you. You have helped me to change my life and helped me to live.
