Sandie, that's so nice too really - I just joined 'healthunlocked' 2 minutes ago - but, getting told I would die in nov 97, but hey 4 1/2 years on, i am climbing mountains and walking long cross country routes ;) I am not clear of problems, far from it, many hiccups and 1 relapse under my belt already ;) but, i am still here, and glad to help raise fnds for Vasculitis UK while i can :)
