  1. hey Jan: you & all of your friends will be in my thoughts and prayers. your husband sounds very much like my husband who would not allow me to drive for few years. first I started droping my son to his friend's house which was like next street. slowly he relented me to fly again. I am sure Wayne will slowly allow you to go to Bay on your own, maybe first few times ask him to tag along with you such that he sees you are able to manage it. your vacation to ocean sounds beautiful. hugs Asha
  2. hey Leah: I agree 100% with Donna. nobody like to be in wheelchair, but better safe than sorry. your God's garden sounds beautiful, just reading about it gives me peace, I bet you will get lot out of it sitting & reading in it. by the time you are ready for ur vacation swine flu might be in control, who knows what tomorrow might bring. Asha

    Just Checking In

    hey Naomi: sich a wonderful post. I feel that all of us has that inner strength within us to get through difficult time in our life. Though when light within us is quivering having great family support & faith can get us by. For the first time in my life I am appreciating spring with awe, after harsh winter if flowers can still bloom, we can bloom too after adversity in life. Asha
  18. Sue: taking course is the best thing you would have done for yourself. It will make you very happy. this sue time is worth every penny. My husband says those college courses I took were our lifesaver. Though v just spent money & I don't know when I will ever use that. but we both believe knowledge is never wasted. I understand it's hard being caregiver. I worry constantly about my role as mom when I am trying to do some things for my son. I put immense pressure on him & myself thinking this is the right thing I am doing for him. i am rambling, maybe I should blog about my insecurities. Asha
  19. Jan: wonderful I needed this today. Asha

    hey Clark: after long time, thanks for updating. I remember how special Anna was to you & I m sure so was Hans. but now he is at better place.

  21. hey Gary: that's great news already getting speeding tickets in wheelchair. from the sounds of this post I already see light at the end of tunnel for Kyle. Asha
  22. Janine: It took me 3 years to start celebrating my stroke anniversary, first year wound is too raw. I am glad Larry is content and making best out of his situation. Janine now u r part of this group, and we don't firget people easily Asha
  23. hey Wes: some people are inconsiderate, don't allow them to rain on your parade. My husband took all of his department secretary out to lunch. Though giving personalized gifts would have been great idea. Next year I will do it for him. your tattoo is amazing. BTW do you also ride Harley Asha
  24. hey Elondie: I still remember mine playing on soccer field with dandelions. Now he is our main defense player go figure. can't wait to see pictures. Asha
  25. Janine: It was so great to hear from you. first year is the hardest & great milestone. I still remember your earlier posting & can feel you have come quite far in your journey too. no one likes lemons handed to them but you have made great lemonade out of it. I feel this site has been lifesaver for me, and it feels good to know that maybe in some minor ways I helped people coming on this site after me. hugs, Asha
