Thanks for sharing, not only the information about your stroke, but about your shopping trip. This is one my favorite quotes--

I can be changed by what happens to me.
I refuse to be REDUCED by it. Maya Angelou

I posted it here instead of on the famous quotes thread because I feel you truely live this way, plus keep the essence of yourself--your sense of humor!!I choose to believe that for every mean spirited person, untold others-like yourself- are truly gifts from God. Thanks for reminding us to keep our chin up and a smile on our face. Look forward to reading of your progress!!!Carose
