Michael you have conquered more than most people will in a lifetime! Some people say that you can't do much or maybe don't know the difference when things happen. However, they don't know you. The REAL YOU! Who sees so much more than even I probably know.
Those who get the opportunity to love someone that is as special as you- are the fortunate ones!
