Following surgery, I've been on a long road to recovery for quite some time, and while I haven't weighed in on many DU posts, I want to say this site has helped keep me sane on my darkest days. Yours words have particularly resonated with me.

Recently, a long-time friend, a college professor, told me she is heartsick about what's happening in our country. Pretty much summed it up for me. Thanks again, sheshe, for reminding me to stay strong.

Cheers and blessings.
