Lisa Hun!!! You have done so much work to get to this point - stick with it... you will do great... especially with your family to support you. I have multiple sclerosis, so I identify with your other diseases... since my surgery on 2/23, I've lost 23 lbs. (which is kinda slow - but I'm not very active) - and I am now taking walks with my children and dogs. It feels so good to be up and out in the sunshine - and to be on a UP in life. My prayers will be with you -- Love,
