I try to be grateful for everything but I know that there is no amount of comparison to the gratefulness you can feel until its so close to being gone or gone and then found. <br />You have an amazing new lease on life, not only because you are'back' but because you see things so much differently than most of us can even imagine to be able to see. Corrie often would say 'it was worth it'.... it was obviously a nightmare, but worth it....worth every little bit. <br />Love and Hugs!!! Can't wait to hear about details to CR!LibbyLibbyLibbyLibbyLibbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06920048348177226476noreply@blogger.com
