I think what we do get back is some of the old H and some of the new H. Afterall, who of us want the exact old H back anyway. Either way, whether I get an improved H or the old one I'll take either. It is the new me that counts and the new me that can make this new M better!
So, is the pity-party over? LMAO! Been there too! As you say if we look back to the year ago person, as we both know and cringe; that person is gone! thank God! I would hate to still be that person! So we have come a long way.
