    Just quoting it again to say how happy I am. That made me cry. My husband was looking at me funny, because I was crying and laughing at the same time. Just so awesome!

    Now, for a song I hope is at least somewhat appropriate. You may have to see where it fits in. Then again, you may not.

    "Miracles" by Jefferson Starship

    If only you believe like I believe, baby
    Wed get by
    If only you believe in miracles, baby
    So would i
    If only you believe like I believe, baby
    Wed get by
    If only you believe in miracles, baby
    So would i.

    I might have to move heaven and earth to prove
    It to you, baby
    So were makin love and you feel the power
    And I feel the power
    Then theres really nothing that we cant do
    If we wanted to, baby
    We could exist on the stars
    Itd be so easy
    All we gotta do
    Is get a little faith in you
    Oh, Ive been (to) so many places
    Ive seen some things
    I know, love is the answer
    Keeps holding this world together
    Aint nothing better
    Aint nothing better
    And all the answers to our prayers
    Hell , its the same everywheres, baby
    Nothing ever breaks up the heart
    Only tears give you away
    Then youre right where I found ya
    With my arms around ya
    Oh baby, baby, baby, love is a magic word, yeah
    Few ever find in a lifetime
    But from that very first look in your eyes
    I knew you and I had but one heart
    Only our bodies were apart
    That was so easy, so easy
    I had a taste of the real world
    When I went down on you, girl.

    If only you believe like I believe, baby
    Wed get by
    If only you believe in miracles, baby
    So would i
    If only you believe like I believe, baby
    Wed get by
    If only you believe in miracles, baby
    So would i.

    I can hear windmills and rainbows
    Whenever youre talkin to me
    I feel like swirling and dancin
    Whenever youre walking with me
    You ripple like a river when I touch you
    When I pluck your body like a string
    When I start dancin inside ya
    Oh baby, you make me wanna sing
    Yeah, baby, baby, baby, baby
    Oh yeah, all right
    Baby, were sure doin it tonight
    Everytime you come by, let me try
    Pretty, please sugar on it
    Thats how I like it
    I cant even believe it, with you
    Its like having every dream I ever wanted
    Come true
    I picked up your vibes
    You know it opened my eyes
    But Im still dreamin yeah
    And youre right where I found ya
    With my arms around ya.

    Refrain (2x)

    Wow, that is amazing.

    I'm sure there is still a long road to go, but what a hell of a milestone.

    I had not read this thread in a while, but the constant slug changes kept me updated. This latest one suggested that good news was heard throughout the land.

    So I clicked on the thread and beheld that indeed, it was good. 8)

    I'm usually just a lurker, but I want to say that the spirit and determination of Willie and the good thoughts of everyone posting are really beautiful and have been an inspiration.
