What follows is a bit of a sugar overdose. Awww, I enjoyed writing it. :) You're a fine example of staying the course, following your inner guide, putting one foot in front of the other, over and over and over again. You deserve every bit of feeling good you are starting to achieve. You haven't given up, and you have listened when your body spoke, even when it was telling you things that went against what you thought were true. "Less is More." Very interesting. I'm so glad you wrote an update, and that your husband is doing well. His adventure is mind-boggling for me!
