Saying Hi

Saying Hi ----- From: Claudia - Date: 04 Nov 1997

Hi Friends, It has been a long time since I have posted or been connected. I am finally truly feeling much better after my recent surgery. I went to the Dr. yesterday and will be able to return to work 11/17. I am ready for "the real world" again, although I have been blessed during my recovery time.

My HP has used this time to allow me to examine myself and I have been able to embrace my humanity as never before. There have been many incredibly difficult experiences these past few months (the worst of which are my husband's committment to Mental Health, and the fact that my son made the choice to leave home about 3 weeks ago.) but through it all I have received a peace that passes understanding. It is surely nothing that I could have conjured up in my own strength. Many of you have also been here for me through the hard times and I want to thank you ffrom the depths of my heart. Being real and allowing others to touch me in time of pain has done amazing things toward helping me to love myself.

I am glad to be reconnected and pray that the Power that is greater than all of us be allowed into your hearts and minds... We are all worthwhile individuals.

Love and {{{{HUGGGGGSSSSS}}}}, Claudia
