Anniversary time!!!!

Post by goose » Thu Jun 05, 2008 10:33 pm

Yay -- it's here!!!! Today is my 1 year anniversary being on the hose.....

Gee. How come I still feel like a newbie??? Oh well, that's ok because that just puts me in good company!!
Yes. it's been frustrating. Yes it's been "weird". And though I still haven't had that magic morning (like after titration), I still feel a whole lot better than I did before treatment!!!!

Onward and upward to year number 2!!!!!!

cheers
goose

P.S. This particular note comes to you from a new Ubuntu install on an old M$ machine. Really like it......

What took you so long (that's a 14 month year)?

Congrats!

Thanks everyone -- I appreciate the great words!!!!!

Roberto - if you're referencing my anniversary date with the "joined the forum" date -- I thankfully found this group before I got my "stuff" so I was in the great position of being able to immediately kick the DME's a** at the first meet.....
It's all good!!!!!

Thanks all!!!!!!
cheers
