(Al...I wanted to include you on this but doh...I forgot to CC: you too
sorry about that) You were a HUGE part of my original recovery...and I
just wanted to share some of what is happening with me right now. To
better understand you may have to scroll down to the bottom...and my first
e-mail to Jim ;-)
Have no fear KC will fight the fight...I'm to stubborn for anyting else
;-) /hugs to you Al I'm always sneaking into your CClive chat to see if
your smiling...and I'll /pounce you if you ever stop ;-p...so just read on
ok ;-)

Thanks Jim...(and John too always my silent angel)
You've been a bright spot in a very cloudy day ;-)
I swear I'll deny this if you tell anyone *L* but
I slept for several hours (and just woke up)
Funny how my body just gives out sometimes.
I knew I was really pushing it w/ all the bball but it was a dream come
true to me and something I wanted to complete ;-)
The last concussion I suffered (during the scrimmage games) caused a few
more problems then they caught at the time...
Well...the disappointment of the day has leveled off and I'm smiling
again. I haven't told my mom everything (although I did tell here about
the previous tests when the blood work was showing changes)
B/c of the Kel thing it was hard to have to tell her ;-( I felt guilty for
adding more to her already loaded up plate
She's a rock Guys...I don't know how she keeps it all together.
Guess she passed some of that on to me b/c I don't fear what lies
ahead...I don't like it but I refuse to let it control my life any more
then it has to.
Right now the Dr.s don't even want me playing bball for fun...when they
said NO bball they mean NONE...that makes me sad. I'm so used to DOING
things...you don't know how tough it is on me to be *tired* to the point I
just want to sleep. I guess I better listen to my body and pool all my
energy within.
*L*
If having heart was the miracle cure...I'd be 1000% right now ;-)
I'm hoping the Dr's in Baltimore will give me some awesome info and new
choices ;-) My Aunt (she's a nurse) was the one who set this up earlier so
the timing is even better ;-)
I don't really like my Specialist here, we just can't relate very well
-( and he never smiles...
to me that's really important!
Haha...imagine rating a doctor on his smiles...*L* that's a Kaycee *must
have* and I won't accept less.
I'm staying UPBEAT...to late to change how I am ;-p
and it works for me but I have my moments of *silent* meditation and
slowmode.
Thanks for understanding but I want to still pop in HSClub and release my
*pep* in there. If that's ok ;-)
I don't want to give up anything...funny thing is there is someone very
special to me (yes a guy) and I'll fight my damnest b/c I'd like to see
what the future has for him and I. That's sorta selfish on my part but he
makes me toooo happy to give up on it ;-)
So I'll go second by second ;-) cherish it, treasure it, lock it away so
one day I can look back and say *I had the BEST of everything in my life*
b/c I truly believe that ;-)
Hugs to my 2 fave Brothers
sending love your way ;-)
