My Birthday!

And for this, my 19th birthday, I give thanks. After all we've been through, I'm still here.

What a year.

I want to thank everyone who's been so supportive, especially of the Dysautonomia Petition. We are over 1,100 - and still going strong! I wish I had the energy to acknowlege everyone individually. Here's my great big thank-you:

THANK YOU!

What, a year? Jeez I miss you people. Thank you to everyone who's kept in touch, even in small ways. I think I may have accidently disabled comments on the blog - sorry! Let me know if it's working now.

Celebrate. New day. New year. Ready, go.

  1. Well I think today certainly fits in with your monthly theme- October Greats.
    How fitting this is your birth month as you are truly great!

    Don't lose faith, sometimes it's necessary to suffer through the bleakest days of winter to emerge in the warmth & beauty of spring.
    May this be the winter leading to your spring, a return to the vibrant Emma you once knew.
    I hope you are able to see that even with all you have been through you are truly an inspiration
    For that we thank you.

    Happy Birthday Emma!
