I know I couldn't have dealt with it if it weren't for my family, friends
and faith in God. I've always felt that God must have a reason for me first
get TM and then living through it. I coded and need to be resuitated 4
times, the doctors didn't expect me to even live the first two weeks. I
have felt for a long time that my purpose in life was to help others. I'm
glad I was able to provide this list for everyone to get together. I still
suprised how many people have joinned this list.
