WOW! No way, it's already been a year? !

Are there significant moments you both experienced along the way? Thanks for sharing as much as you have.

Awesome news sweetheart for both TR and his adoring dedicated wife, through this year i know that we have shared much and i have been lucky enough to share many ups and downs with you both over this and many other issues, yours and mine.

Every day i am thankful that i can call you TR and JT and Jess my friends. It has been a long hard journey i know but truly i feel that the strength you have gained and the love that has grown within your unit has meant that good has come from this awful thing.

My love to you, TR and the family as always and thankyou for all that you are, and all that you are not.

Be well friend.

Yes way 12 months

I can not even begin to share with you the second by moment by hourly significant moments ... so very very many from the ones already forgotten to the life changing ones. All helping us to strive to move forward and those as well that tried to twist and undermine our hard work.

Millions of tears ... seriously

and still so much to work through and learn

What a blessing for you and your family.

Though through all of those tears you made it through it and I am sure you are all much stronger now than before.

Much love & happiness to you, TR and the whole family.

Thank you everyone

Wow, can't believe it's been a year already. Many more happy anniversaries for you and your family.

"Miracles" - Walt Whitman

Why! who makes much of a miracle?
As to me, I know of nothing else but miracles,
Whether I walk the streets of Manhattan,
Or dart my sight over the roofs of houses toward the sky,
Or wade with naked feet along the beach, just in the edge of the water,
Or stand under trees in the woods,
Or talk by day with any one I love--or sleep in the bed at night with any one I love,
Or sit at table at dinner with my mother,
Or look at strangers opposite me riding in the car,
Or watch honey-bees busy around the hive, of a summer forenoon,
Or animals feeding in the fields,
Or birds--or the wonderfulness of insects in the air,
Or the wonderfulness of the sun-down--or of stars shining so quiet and bright,
Or the exquisite, delicate, thin curve of the new moon in spring;
Or whether I go among those I like best, and that like me best--
mechanics, boatmen, farmers,
Or among the savans--or to the soiree--or to the opera,
Or stand a long while looking at the movements of machinery,
Or behold children at their sports,
Or the admirable sight of the perfect old man, or the perfect old woman,
Or the sick in hospitals, or the dead carried to burial,
Or my own eyes and figure in the glass;
These, with the rest, one and all, are to me miracles,
The whole referring--yet each distinct, and in its place.

To me, every hour of the light and dark is a miracle,
Every cubic inch of space is a miracle,
Every square yard of the surface of the earth is spread with the same,
Every foot of the interior swarms with the same;
Every spear of grass--the frames, limbs, organs, of men and women,
and all that concerns them,
All these to me are unspeakably perfect miracles.

To me the sea is a continual miracle;
The fishes that swim--the rocks--the motion of the waves--the ships with men in them,
What stranger miracles are there?

Mach, you remind me of this wonderful poem. Throughout difficulty and despite circumstances which would turn many bitter and cynical, still you retain your ability to recognize the goodness of life and appreciate it for everything it is.

Congratulations on this one-year milestone, and may your family have many more years of health and happiness.
