10th Anniversary Of My Fate
19 March, 2008

Ten years ago I had to face my fate.
With one word, "Tumor" I lost everything even my mate.

Lost my driving license, gone
Lost my job------- gone
Lost my independance------gone.

Found myself------gained.
Found what matters--gained.
Found peace and contentment--gained.

I'm finally using my brain.

Way to Go Barb!

I'm happy for you. I'm happy that you've gained happiness after such devastating news. That's right. Stay healthy and live long Barb! Fight illness and conquer life's obstacles!

Thanks for this post!

Me too

That's inspiring. You seem to have replaced what you lost by gaining a new and learned perspective of the world with all of it's problems.
Don't worry about messing up with names. Sometimes when I'm driving I totally forget where I was going. When this happens I sometimes have no idea of where I am. Luckily, my car seems to know the way.
