Obviously very new to this, but the results of the study do not surprise me. I look forward to holding my 2-year old daughter, I look forward to kayaking, swimming and the many things I did before the rug was pulled for under me. More than anything I look forward to my reversal surgery more than anything. I have been through a lot in my life and have been described as stoic. That is not the case now, this change in my life has knocked me senseless. Perhaps I should concentrate on the present and be grateful that this is a temporary setback. Baby steps, baby steps.
