Well I have been so out of touch with the world that I find it strange to be among the living and the healthy. It has been almost two weeks now and I do believe my cycle is over. This is great because I have a surprise birthday party on Friday and I am going to eat everything and everything off of the menu.(My birthday was Sept. 28) Anyway I wouldn't have been able to get through the past 6 months without so many people from this board. I'm afraid to try to name everyone because it is almost impossible but I must give a special thanks to Elaine, Margi, John Perez, Glenn and Patty. It was these people whom I kept in constant contact with. Of course I must give a huge shout out to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, without him I know I wouldn't have been able to get through this. I have become a stronger person because of this experience. Having gone through so much pain I will want to live the rest of my pain free days trying to help others who suffer. I want to be able to talk of this experience to others so that if another person is out there then they will understand that yes, this too shall pass. Well I need to go and try to decide what in the heck I am going to eat of Friday. May all of you find pain free days, I will continue to pray for each and everyone on this board.
Love Always,
Bernie
