"People will argue with you that getting what you want in life isn’t something you can learn, if you’re destined to be one of the worlds winners as opposed to one of its perpetual whiners, its because you have been born with the right talents and temperament and have a big dose of self-esteem, ambition, and good judgment."

Thank so much to Kim, Mary and Katy for coming to see me (it really lifted my spirits, you guys are awesome!) and to everyone who had me in their thoughts and prayers. I am a FIRM believer that it made a difference.

(looking around the room and sipping) So this is what the "other side" looks like? I think I'll stay a while if that's ok?

Time to walk and sip. TTYL!
Glad to hear all is well with you! Maybe Dr.C is on the cautious side because of all the problems he had with me? I was his problem child. I know what your feeling. I had the drainage tubes and a gt tube. Hang in there. It is all for your benefit.
