UPDATE 3/6/2015
I know many of you don't know me, but I have 130 transactions on the FS/FT forums recorded and I have posted in the L&R forums.
My days at this forum are finished.
I can't elaborate other than I no longer have the means to particapate.
And yes, I may be back someday. 😛
UPDATE: 2/9/2015
I felt comfortable enough to post an update for anybody that cares. I missed this place enough to come back, so obviously I do.
A lot has happened while I've been away. I'm still married, I have a better relationship with my family and I decided to share my diagnosis and the problems I had earlier that I left somewhat of a veil over.
Aside from having Marfan Syndrome and the accompanying hardware (two synthetic valves and a pacemaker), I also have been diagnosed as BiPolar I about 8 yrs ago.
In the past 4 years, I have been hospitalized numerous times (in the high 'teens) with a handful of those being psychiatric ward stays. The most recent hospitalization for my heart was December 23, 2014 and lasted only one night.
I'm currently on disability, backdated to May '13. Wife and I are are working things out best we can given the circumstances. She has her own health issues and is dealing with them accordingly. I will not go into details on this.
Anyhow, fwiw I'm back. I don't get out much, lost my car and have no means of transportation at the moment so I have some spare time. I figured I'd come back to a community I'd been part of for a long time.
Thanks.
