Re: [TMIC] Re: [QUAD-L] 35 year anniversary
Jude, looking back at the posts preceding your comments, none of them were on the TMIC. The address listed on them is _quad-l...@eskimo.com_ (mailto:quad-l...@eskimo.com) , not the TMIC address. Did you inadvertently subscribe to the Quad list and get it confused with the TMIC? And don't you even think about going anywhere. You are a vital part of the TMIC. You made a mistake, apologized, and asked forgiveness -- now just receive it, let's put all this behind us, and move on. There will likely be more comments as too often people will read the first note in a thread and respond before seeing that the issue has been resolved, but if they keep reading they'll see that it has.

Heyjude - I've only been a TM for 3 yrs and have been reading the emails for a couple of weeks deciding whether or not I want to join in.?? I've been quite surprised by some of the things I've read and applaud you even though you were slightly off point.? Maybe someone can tell me what I am missing because so far this site seems like a fraternity with way too many personal messages clogging up the email cyber waves.?

It seems I was strong enough to defeat their predictions even though I appeared to be weak at the time. I was given a tracheostomy after each of my surgeries, but it was removed before I came home. I had so many long hospitalizations trying to get off the ventilator and over pneumonia. I was given another tracheostomy during a pneumonia in 88, which they changed to a trach button before I left the hospital. It has kept me out of the hospital except for a UTI that got into my bloodstream causing a coma for 13 days. I had a pneumonia last year. The trach buttonallows me to get over the bronchitis at home. I didn't want it, but it turned out to be a good thing for me and not very noticeable. It is mostly capped, unless I have a lot allergies or congestion and might need suctioned as needed. It is easy
