  Subject: Re: [TMIC] Kind of OT


  Thank The Creator!

  My chair came today and it is the BOMB!!!  It is going to take some learning 
to absorb all of its functions, bells and whistles.   

  It is so-o-o comfortable and fits me like a glove with supports in all of the 
right places.  It raises to about a 6" height, tilts, reclines, lays completely 
back or a combination of all of them...slight exageration there but not by much.

  We have Blue Care Network for insurance and they have never turned me down 
for a thing, but what I didn't know is that I qualify for a new wheelchair 
every five years!  Is that standard?  It seems extravagant to me, unless 
absolutely necessary like mine (brittle bone disease).  I had no idea that I 
could have gotten this chair whether I needed it or not.  Or maybe one gets the 
chair he/she qualifies for...that's probably closer to the truth.  I'm just 
excited! 

  It's almost as exciting to drive as my old '77  that is called an emerdement 
red Corvette, and goes almost as fast...well, you know.

  Anyway, I'm not writing to brag.  I'm writing to thank you all for the 
Prayers you have been thinking, saying, whatever to whomever (I happen to 
hopelessly believe in one for all and all for one).  I also believe that Prayer 
does help...miracles do happen, just like the other way around.  I was stopped 
in my tracks for a reason, but it was to humble me and save me from myself.  I 
now have a second chance.  A chance to get out of bed...to possibly hold a 
computer type job  At least I now have the ability to see over my cooktop and 
can once more do something that I love to do.  Even clean my countertops the 
way they ought to be...Dave takes excellent care of me but is not so great in 
the cleaning/neatness part of things.  But he sure is a good man for me!

  Anyway...I know it sounds like I'm putting all of my eggs in one basket but 
I'm not.  I know there will still be pain and infections and horrible, 
neverending diarreah.  But there is also hope now...and until/if ever/hopefully 
never...it is taken away or dwindles a bit...I have  .

  Thank you for being my friends, acquaintances, could not care lessers and 
even enemies.  I love you and am thankful every moment of every day that the 
TMIC List is here for me and that there is always someone out there in Internet 
Land to tell me that I can hold on for one more night; I can make it three 
hours til Dave gets home from work; I have someone who truly understands and 
most importantly, will be my family when I have none.

  The mail would not let me send this to everyone of you separately because the 
list was too long, but you all know who you are.

  This is dedicated to my friend Grace...wherever she is.

  Peace and Prayers,
  Jude
