... I hAve very few regrets and do not want to try any redos (the little bad could have been so much worse).

even the parts that suck r exactly what i asked for. i got to live the life i saw in my 20s to the hilt.
i got to take my shot at several big dreams, and even those that fell flat i cherish. i got my at bats.

and i have way more regrets for the things that i didnt do than the things i did. pretty sure the wishes my mom had when she brought me home from the hospital were exceeded. (it’s her bday today. she wd have been 111. 2 time cancer survivor.)

... and I was in the periphery. I caught some 'shrapnel', but they were in the crater.

You said it exactly right: I also got more than my share of at bats (what with my being white and male) The runs were mine - and so were all the many more whiffs.

No regrets so much as some disappointments of my own authorship. But we dust off and get back up.

and sounds like a very good hand of doctors. Keep it up, it's working!

... weeks, and I got into his office in three or four weeks, with all the intervening holidays, I feel that was good time.

This is what we all deserve in an American health care system.

Great programs. Glad you could get the help you needed!

... is still active.

... specialist with a plan, it's all good. I'm about to resolve an eight year fight.

Your fight has got you this far, it will get you to the finish line. Pulling for you all the way.

... I am golden.

long and hard enough to get to this place!

Thanks for keeping DU in your orbit. Take care.

... we do as we are told. That only contributes to a good resolution. If you don't show interest in your process VA starts putting your appointments further out. I am very satisfied with my treatment, and I always thank everyone who's helped me, when I was in Temple VA, I thanked even the room cleaners. They thank me for my service and I thank them for taking such good care of me. The intensive care ward was filled with the most caring and empathetic nurses. They made me feel like I was a family member.

The two that were assigned specifically to me were so young and yet so well trained, they showed so much kindness and care about me. I get emotional about it. VA is an example of how we all can get along together.
