Hi all - Happy new years to all! Just journaling a bit. Went out w friends to a few parties last night and had a good time. Oddly enough I ended up speaking with a man who was going through D himself...saying 2009 was the worst year of his life and we compared D stories...but it wasn't a sob story, it was a nice conection of 2 people going through a tough time and trying to see light at end of tunnel. I told him about this site and how wonderful it is, how it's helped me so much over the past 6 months. I truly appreciate all of you that have chimed in and helped me, and it's nice to be able to give to others in a small way. Really enjoyed the conversation and ended up giving him my #...don't know that there's spark there but you never know..and that's what some of us need to do who are unfortunately going down the D route, is give these little opportunities a chance. You never know who you'll meet who might end up being a great fit for you, or just have fun in the process of getting to know new people. There will be some sadness for awhile (and some comparison with H for a bit too as I meet new people), but we all move forward, baby steps sometimes, into this new year. Peace to all -hhh
