Hi vkw,

I was saddened by your story but uplifted at the same time. What you went through and are still going through sounds tough but it's nice to know you have caring family and friends around you.

I'm glad things are slowly starting to look up for you- you're free! It must be lovely to be able to drive again. I really hope things just keep on getting better for you.

Take care.

Super,

Congrats, I know from my mum that there is nothing like being able to drive again to give you back your independence.

thanks super thing are realy good now but my mum still come over 2 x week to help out . i have bought the boys new shoes with velcro so i can manage the shoes now
