Hear hear, Dulcinea!!
It saddens me deeply to read Chocolatelover's and James' posts... I hope and pray that they'll come back and will be able to keep on surviving, no matter where or how.
I'm adding a few more things to my "survived it!" list:
An incredible amount of foot pain
Rooming with a hopelessly immature friend
Turbulence!
Everyone, reading your posts is truly inspiring, even the negative ones. THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR THIS!!!
love and hugs,
