    The 1thing that I would change is that I would be a mother with 4 children. I love my kids and I am very thankful to have them but I miss that 1 that wasn't born. He would be 7 this year.

    Keep up the positive attitude in your fight with cancer. I am a 20 year survivor (since age 32) & am grateful and thank God for every day.

    Wow, that brought on unexpected tears. Mine would have been 31 last September. I just now realized that my DGS was born on the day the baby I lost was due. Gotta go get some tissue.

    I am sorry I didn't mean to upset you. I have been at the tissue box sense I wrote it.

    I injured my back about 5 1/2 years ago & live in constant pain with that & Fibromyalgia. I get down sometimes because I'm not able to do alot of things I used to, like my job, yard work & working in my flower beds which I love. So I would change that for sure. All in all though I'm a very happy person & have the best family ever. Just harder on some days to cope & some days it is a struggle but I'm dealing with it. Have to, I have no choice! LOL

    To be honest, I'll pass on changing something about me. 2 years ago I was in a car accient that basically did to me what happens to a baby in 'shaken baby syndrome' I look the same on the outside as I did before, but the inside got sort of messed up and though they said I will notice small improvments over the next year, if I hadn't gotten better than I was a year ago, my life is such that I'll be fine. My husband was basically unaffected by the accicent and though he doesn't agree with me, I think the stress of me in a coma cuased him to have abdominal pain that wasn't caused by but found a cancer in his bladder. They took it out and teted it, found out it was found so early it wasn't even to a stage one cancer yet. All the stuff I went through I'd go through again if it meant finding a cancer in him so early.
    I tend to be one of those people that looks at the bright side of things anyway, when I woke up from the coma I was 12 pounds lighter, exactly the same 12 pounds I had been wanting to lose for 2 years. Hell of a way to lose it though

    I'm just so happy I can still sew

    I would like to have better health but when I read about others health problems I realize I don't have it that bad. But what I really wish for is to have more confidence and courage. I have not lived up to my full potential in life because I have been too scared to try......Maybe I need a shrink.
