MDJunction to me

Claire138"It's been a year since I joined the Parkinson's Disease Support Group on MDJunction and all I can say is thank you all for the support, compassion and friendship I've received and been able to give as well. It was a lonely night when I came upon this site, but the nights aren't that lonely anymore...
With gratitude to all...

What good thing has happened in 2008? What will make 2008 rememorable?

Here are a couple of my things:

I coached my daughter's soccer team

I got my dog Tango <3

I found MDJunction

I know there are more but that is all I can think of right now.

Cool

I became my son's legal guardian

I found MDJunction

My son got married and I got a sweet daughter-in-law

My daughter got a promotion and was moved to full-time status, which means she's not asking me for money every week anymore

My rheumatologist put me on an additional med for my fibro which made a world of difference for me

I found MDJ.

I had my daughter.

I got meds for my bipolar.

That is the order in which they happened not the most important necessarily.

My best day is worse than the worst day you have ever imagined.

Cheerful Good things for me in 2008

Hurricane Ike flooded our business...but, we built beautiful new offices, much nicer than the old ones.

And we tore out the nasty old carpet and I am getting hardwood flooring in my office...

We stayed in business through the roughest financial times we have had since going into business. Didn't have to lay off any workers.

Cheerful My son stayed stable all year and is doing great.

Cheerful I stayed sober for a whole year (that makes two yrs now).
