Picture this...

A rather petite, middle aged woman, minus most of her hair, in her pyjamas (its dinner time) standing in her family room singing at the top of her lungs... the Hallelujah Chorus!!!!!!

Rocker,

My brother in this battle and now in life.  I do not want to take anything away from anyone else who has reached SVR or has had this battle, but..........this is the best news I have heard in 6 months.  No one and I mean no one deserves it any better than you.

Congratulations my friend.  You have survived the  :dragon:, fought the battle and now you have won the war.  And was is great about that is you fight this fight for the rest of us on this site and in your life. 

Now, go celebrate.

Thanks to each and every one of you from the bottom of my heart. I don't know what I would have done without this site when I was on Tx. To my very special friends, my love to you, you know who you are!  :grin:

Banarep, you have been the best friend a guy could every ask for. I remember when I was on Tx, I got to work at the old job, many miles from home and realized I had forgotten to take my riba. You were the guy I reached out to, and of course, you told me to chill, etc.  :whistling: You were my "sponsor" and my rock. Postcard, my toxic twin, yes... we did it. Many thanks to sister Mac, your friendship is a treasure.

Next week, I'm getting my new tattoo. A dragon (dead) wrapped around a sword, of course!  :grin:

I've been up all night working, trying to grasp this new reality. It really does seems surreal, but damn, I like it!
