Waterlil thank you for this thread....it gives hope and reapair.:hug:

TrishS I am sorry to hear about your ordeal. Just knowing and trusting in God your battle is won. It may not feel like it but you know the truth. When you trust in him the devil is always around trying to make you lose faith. Let's not give him what he wants. I am praying for you TrishS, you are not the first nor the last person to have to deal with something like this. Don't let your doctors brush you off, research and get other opinions. When you are cleaning and packing your port area, you thank God that you are here, you thank God for every blessing that you have.....being able to see, walk, talk, think, for knowing him in an intimate way.....I am praying for you TrishS. When I am out walking I pray for everyone and I especially pray for the LBT members. Trish I love you and stay in pray, be thankful and smile. God is an awesome God and things will work out. The simplest prayer is the best prayer. http://www.cptryon.org/prayer/teach.html Our Father, who art in heaven hallowed be thy Name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen.

Maryb what size engine does your mini have? Amy I like mini vans, I had one and I was able to put the neighbor hood kids in it along with my child's bike and go. It was great. My other car I just sold was a Ford Taurus. I loved that car.

Toyota Highlander is what I found to fit me comfortably. I thought I was going to have to get a minivan. Hopefully one day I will fit into a minicooper, they are so cute.
