  Hello, TPND. Don't know how I managed to miss your thread, but have just been reading through the entire thing. I don't have anything profound to add - I just want to say that I am SOOO IMPRESSED! You are so open and honest, and that is so important. I'm also really impressed at the responses you have received from your PC family - some very knowledgable and experienced people here with a lot of wisdom. You have been through so much in your few years, yet reading through everything you have taken positive step after positive step, even when pushed back a little. It looks to me like you are doing everything you need to be doing to take charge of your situation and life. You've got things headed in the right direction and are giving yourself every opportunity to succeed. I wish you all the best - you're a fighter and I believe that it is in our willingness to fight, no matter how weak we feel, that we "win."
