Wow, John! Awesome to hear how things developed. A day like you describe really makes one wonder if there really isn't a master plan someplace directing our steps and leading us on the right path. Looks like your wake up call pointed you in the right direction. So glad you found the fight in you! And how nice it was of you to go to the birthday party with all the 10-year-olds. I'm sure it meant a lot to your "little brother". and it sounds like it made you feel good, too. I'm so glad you are staying involved in life and friends and family. It really does help to soften the difficult moments that come by. Keep up the fight, John!
