Thank you DU!

I decided to put this in GD for those that do not go to the Lounge.

I am a living example what can happen when people are willing to come together to help each other! Thanks to the help and the cheer leading that people here have done, I have been able to keep going!I now have a home and a job! I feel like a person again!

Thank you DU! I can now start to Defy Gravity again!

It has been a transforming experience! And it is the people here that helped to keep my spirits up and those that seem to be at the right place at the right time to help me, that made it possible!

There were times I was ready to quit. Just throw up my hands and just accept fate. But, I would log on here and see all the good vibes and I was able to keep going.

Then there were those members that helped to get my ticket back here to Tucson, got me a "survivor pack", and one that bought me lunch, gave me a suitcase and a ride to a shelter in time for check in.

And then there was Wishadoo...

So many have helped me get this far! Thank you ALL!

It's not easy to keep focused and keep going, but I'm glad you're going to return to defying gravity again.
Maybe you should change your nickname to "Lady Freedom Returns To Defying Gravity!!"

It's good news, to be sure.
