This is very introspective and very deep. The smallest things can sometimes be the biggest tributes.

What a great WOW moment!

You really wrote that well. That was a GREAT story. I know exactly what you are talking about. I can't believe all the money I am saving now. I told my husband that the surgery will very soon pay for itself! (Yes I have insurance but there is still a couple grand in out of pocket stuff I have to pay)
