Welcome to this fine family of generous and kind people.  I've been blessed with amazing support and encouragement here.  Having a good attitude in anything in life helps -- and I'm proof positive that being chirpy and finding humor works miracles................but, of course, all the prayers and juju and mojo and all those positive jibes definitely did the job, too!  We sleevers are a bunch of over-achievers, I think LOL   

As you continue on your journey, I wish you the best, much success, and that wondrous feeling you'll get with the NSVs that multiple like bunny rabbits!  No more seat belt extenders, shopping in "regular" stores, finding bones you thought would never show up again (at least that was my experience!)........so many NSVs in your future!

Thank you for your kind words.........and now I do know you, so you're part of the family, too!  The more the merrier!

Many blessings to you.

What fantastic news Ree! I haven't been on OH regularly lately (busy with new relationship with a wonderful man and new position at my job!) but I told myself I should check the site this morning. It must be to start my day with this great news! I am so happy for you sleevesister, and in awe of how well you have handled all that you have had to deal with in the past several months. Best wishes for continued health and happiness! Happy Thanksgiving! Karen
