Great News Kathleen! I'm so glad to hear your recovery is pleasing to you and your doctor. Back to driving is a new level of independence! Thank you, for sharing your journey with us. You are a light and wonderful example of mindfulness in action! Be well my friend.

Dear Kathleen, you are an inspiration, a role model, a warrior. Continuing to fight the good fight for your improving health especially during times that were difficult, and now continuing the good fight to improve our community and beyond. Thank you for your friendship and I send nothing but continued good wishes for you - always!

I was only able to check in on the caring bridge site a few times, but was always impressed by the depth of your reflections, your positive attitude in light of an honest awareness of the trauma you were facing and your inner strength and determination to make a positive outcome a reality. I also admire your eloquence and gift with language. I am so thankful the surgery and your hard work and determination is resulting in a better quality of life for you as your body becomes stronger and less in the grip of constant pain. I feel blessed to be considered your friend and sister.

This is wonderful news Kathleen. I am impressed that you are up to walking 3 miles a day!!!

I am so happy you able to finally have floor time with Lily! Priceless gift for both of you!
