Thanks downandlonely! I am feeling a LOT better now. I have my appointment next week and while I'm not excited to go, I am ready to get it done and see where things stand so I can get on with life. I had made a promise to the universe 18-ish months ago to be there for my dogs on their final days. I just made another, that should I get out of this in reasonable shape, I'm going to get myself rolling on moving out of here and getting the dogs and me closer to my brother and his family. Then do everything required to get my life restarted. It was a good day, despite the terror bump a bit earlier. Sometimes you need something to spur you to action. I've had several somethings the last week. Maybe the universe is telling me something and I'm only now hearing it.
Thanks again!
