My "2nd crack at life" anniversary will be May 21. On May 21, 2012 my family thought I was dying. I spent 3 weeks in a coma.

Tom refused to put me in a nursing home. He brought me home and has been encouraging me as I work at building a new life.

Weight loss--sustained weight loss is my goal right now. I would like to lose 98 pounds. But losing 5 lbs would be a great gift. Maybe 5 lbs at a time is the best way to attack this challenge.
