I agree with you Kath. I am better off now than before, I can get around and do; I'm OK. I have met the most wonderful group of people I have ever known. They care, encourage, comfort, cheer-lead, and chastise when needed. I have, not once, asked for help and not received it in abundance. They are people from all over, different lives, different experiences all brought together in an effort to first, find comfort and help for themselves; then to provide that comfort and help for others. I am more than a little cynical in my view of the people in this world; until I met this precious group, I really did not believe they existed. Whatever may happen to me and my little plastic knee, I am much better off for the time I have spent with this group.
