I wouldn't say life is a joke. Some of us have worked so hard to reach this point, and tried so hard to help others as well.

We all have a purpose in life and a reason to live.

Thank you for creating this topic, though.

I hit the wood chair backrest on the hairline, dead-center. Anyone know what part of the brain that is? (I'll look it up as well).

I has been a year & 1 month of a pain nightmare, and I feel 20 years older than 37. But I'm alive. And I'm thankful this didn't happen decades ago.
