It's been a long road...

Do to circumstances that almost changed my life in a bad way, I am slowly getting my mindset back on track. I had nearly lost my 18 year old son 1 week before Christmas in 2012 and have been a wreck ever since.

My wife, my daughter and I were by my sons side for 5 days in ICU. When he finally woke up on the 3rd day he recognized me and my daughter but didn't know his mother for about 36 hours.

He has since made a full recovery but I feel very overprotective of him which bothers him a lot.

It has brought joy to me to see Kyles' little girl and Jays boys...memories of my kids growing up.

Working in this field take up a lot of time but the rewards of seeing what I have learned here and put into action give me a great feeling of accomplishment.

I keep watching WA and have been trying to get back into the groove but it has been a struggle. Last September I paid for a yearly membership and have done very little with it. I stopped working on any sites and have not been able to focus on gaining any new local customers.

I was reluctant to make this post but I felt it was necessary hoping that it would help me get back on track, it's a start. Don't take me wrong, I am not one to look for sympathy. Just make sure that you are spending the right mix of time with your loved ones because bad things can happen at anytime.
