One of the nicest things about having a "rare" disease.........is having wonderful friends like you welcoming us "newbies" into the fold!

You were one of my first contacts here. Thank You and Congratulations on your 3rd Anniversary. Need I say......may you have many, many more in your future!

Now....officially....I am sending you a large box of guilt free, Cyber Chocolates for the occasion.

Hugs....Diane : )

Shari,

Please forgive me for being on "Hawaiian time" for real! I haven't been on here like I used to...but I do 'pop' in once in a while.

Anyway, CONGRATS! on your 3rd anniversary!!!! Smiley

You have been such an inspiration to me! You have always been so supportive and have always been there to help me understand what the heck I was going through when I was first diagnosed with this 'rare' disease. Wink

I can't thank you enough...but just know that you have touched the lives of many...just as others on this site have.

From the bottom of my heart...I couldn't have done it without the support from people like YOU...Ms. Shari Trantas!!!

Congrats!!!

Aloha,
Shan
