Greetings all, My husband & I travel to Germany on Tuesday, July 1st. I am going to have surgery with Dr. K (I will leave it at that) on July 4th. I think this date is poignant as I think of it as freedom & independence from adhesion pain.
I have learned so much from this board and throughout the years the most important fact I will take away is that we must all be in charge of our own health. Education, information & support have kept me from falling off the deep end. I would like to personally thank Helen for her devotion to educating me through her postings.
After my surgery I will resign from the board. It makes me feel selfish in a way, to use & leave but I plan on reclaiming my life. In the past 6 years, I have buried my mother, buried my only son, have had 3 surgeries and very little quality of life. I want to spend my remaining days being the wife, mother & now happily grandmother I have wanted to be.
I thank you all for your help, information and continued support as we all try to find the solutions that work best for us as individuals. May each of you find a moment of pleasure in every day.
