MDJunction to me

"What MD Junction means to me is a place where i can feel like im not alone. As someone with something as rare as hydrocephalus, it feels like im the only one in the world with it. When i came to MD, its like everyone has it. It doesnt feel like im alone. And that people need to hold up a sign to say what i have, because people know. And they understand. I can get questions answered from people who have been through it rather than from doctors or people who only can tell you from a physical standpoint. THat is what MD junction means to me."

My Daughter

Nov 29 2008

I've been so down lately, it feels like I've never been happy..I cant even remember what it feels like. Today is different. My daughter comes to visit today! I am giddy andsmiling and planning a day just for us. I know she's a grown woman, but I miss her so much. I hardly ever get to see her anymore and this year we spent our first holiday apart at Thanksgiving. I was totally lost without her. I guess I am starting to understand the empty nest syndrome. I am so happy that she's coming to visit. I am so grateful that she is my daughter.

She is smart, funny, beautiful and kind. She makes me laugh till we both cry and today will be a good day, no matter what, just because of her. She has a way about her. I've never been more proud of anything or anyone in my life and I love her dearly.

You should print that out and let her know how much she means to you. Or tell her.
