Oh, dear friends!! I don't even know what to say! Thank you SO much for all your words of love and encouragement both here and in private messages and emails!! I cannot begin to tell you what they mean to me! They made me cry--but happy tears. I don't think I've ever known such kindness on this particular subject before!! So, I will hold your thoughts close to my heart!
I feel like it's Meat's birthday and I'M the one getting the presents!
Several of you have written that you know someone else who has this problem--not as severe as mine has been, but still... There are a LOT of people in this world who suffer from Panic in one form or another. Please tell them NOT to give up!! If I can come this far, after being isolated for such a long time, THEY, too, can fight their way out of this to a better life!! Just tell them NEVER to give up hope or to give up trying!!
I've been working much of the night on tomorrow's celebration. I was getting sleepy until I came back here and read your messages. Now, I'm jazzed again and probably good for a couple more hours of work.
I hope you'll all be able to come by sometime during the 'festivities' and join in the celebration! It wouldn't be the same without you!!
Thank you again so much! You all have a special place in my heart!!
Have a great day! See you at the 'party.'
With much love,
MB
