Edie, "inspiration" really is the word that best describes you! You are inspiring.

And, as you noted, you're also wonderfully positive. I totally agree with you that a positive attitude as we go through this scary (at first), weird (continues for a while) journey is a huge advantage.

Yes, I know that everybody isn't blessed with Edie's bright, optimistic outlook on life. But if you're not, just read her posts here and try to soak up her sunshine.

Edie, you're a star! And you have helped so many people here. R E S P E C T !

Awww thanks Ann! when I grow up I want to be just like you :-) xx

Edie, the word I think of when I see your picture and read your posts is, "Radiant." You have a positive spirit that just flows onto the pages and the smile is brilliant. You've been an inspiration to many and I wish you continued success Keep sharing because it not only helps others, it keeps us on track!

Thanks jerzygirl... DITTO :-) X
