It isn't fun getting older and the thought of not being able to do things for myself is unbearable. You have it easier than me though, because you can walk, but all in all, the future is kind of difficult for us TM'ers to face. I'd like to wish you a happy anniversary, but I know it isn't one you really want to celebrate. I do wish you all the best that life has to offer and hope that you continue to do all of the things you need to do to keep yourself going. Enjoy life to the fullest! Remember, TIAD.
