Guest guest Posted April 12, 2004 Report Share Posted April 12, 2004 , it was so fun to read your post about the amusement park. That is one of the things I can't wait to experience. I love Disneyland and it will be so much fun to actually experience it again instead of just observing it. My surgery is scheduled for May 25 and I am so excited. Bless you and keep having fun!!!

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2004 Report Share Posted April 12, 2004 What inspiration you are! Your words made me cry.
