Im still here!

Hello to all, yes Im still here. I want to thank all of you for your thoughts and for the award last year, I have only checked my e-mail etc.. twice in the last 3-4 months. After 2 operations and a ton of medications since December I am back home and feel better than I have in a long time. I guess Im to much of a hard ass to let the "C" get the best of me. My Doctors are amazed that Im still here and Im amazed at my medical bills! Smile

I will be on the thearpy comeback and will do my best to walk/jog again in the future. I will try to keep you guys informed as to whats going on now that Im home. Once again Thanks for all of your support!

You are an inspiration. Meds help but only if there is a strong will and you certainly have it. Glad you are doing better. Just don't look at the medical bills too often. Wink

Hope you can start running soon. Ewa
