I just wanted to share with you, my friends, here which to me are cooler then Facebook, haaa that I received my diploma the other day.  I earned my MA IN PSYCHOLOGY with also my MFT intern lisence while raising our 6 at home kids and sporting my acoustic neuroma diagnosis during my last two months of school!   Heading for translab in 2 weeks.  You just never know what's going to happen, so live each day to the fullest!

Steph ~

Congratulations on your notable achievement!  I'm very impressed (almost feel like a slacker ;)) and wish you a great future in your chosen field.

4.5 cm AN diagnosed 5/06.  Retrosigmoid surgery 6/06.  Follow-up FSR completed 10/06.  Tumor shrinkage & necrosis noted on last MRI.  Life is good. 

Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It's the way it is.  The way we cope with it is what makes the difference.
