Hi Gang!
Just had to share this with you. Today I went out shopping for a
remnant for my bedroom and the stangest thing happened. I was using my
cane and the salesman asked if this was just temporary. I said, NO, I
was paralyzed from my waist down at the age of 15, but the cane was a
recent event. He told me his Dad was in a wheel chair because he had
been paralyzed over 30 years ago with TRANSVERSE MYELITIS! I couldn't
believe it. I said, that's what I had! We talked for about 15 minutes
and I told him about the TMIC and the newsletter and the upcoming
conference in Seattle etc. He said his Dad was not technologically
incline but I told him to try the local public library for internet
access and to visit the TM site. Yep, I bought my carpet from the man:)
You never know. Anyway, it's off to finish my painting and back to
start my new round of exercises.
I'm going to try to face these with Gunny's attitude and work my buns
off:) Just do it!

OK. See you.
Maureen
