AVRT: I don't "celebrate" it. But I will never forget it. It may have been the worst experience of my life, the hardest thing I have ever done and the one which took the most guts. I don't expect anyone else to be "interested" in it. I don't expect anyone else to really care. I do. I got my "self" back. That didn't have to happen.
As for the folks who helped me, I'll never forget them too. I might have been able to do it alone after reading a book but, considering those many many years during which I tried to do just that, most "rational" (yes "rational") folks would probably say, "That dawg won't hunt!"
