Re: [TMIC] Hi Stacy
Don't speak so quick. I don't know how long it will take for me to get back to it. I messed myself up pretty bad with my back. A lot of therapy is still needed. I'm still trying to figure out how to get to my feet so I can get dressed in a fair amount of time.

[TMIC] Hi Stacy
The more I read our emails, the more amazed I am at the challenges some of us put up with and still manage to retain our sanity. To be hit with this at 33, well, it's too young... But children get it too... That you feel strong enough to consider going on with your studies is a good sign, and who else can be of more help to the disabled as you intend to be, but you, who's been in that yukky boat. Anyway, good luck Stacy, I still think that you are the brave one. As for me, my TM problem was diagnozed in 2004, but symptoms were there long before but not recognized. I struggle with it. I get discouraged at times and send these depressed emails. You should see me pause before pressing that send prompt. And after sending it, I hate myself, calling myself a cry-baby and hating to check the responses in shame. But you know, that's what we're all about, isn't it? Helping each other, no matter what. And then I'm so touched by the responses. You are all so kind. Stacy, I wish I were closer to you so I could visit you and help you. They do say that it's the thought that counts, but in this case, it hardly seems enough. In friendship. R
