<t>We moved from San Diego a year ago and LOVE it here.BIG CHANGE! We are in west Texas. Of course there are things we miss (the beach, the mountains, the culture) but they are small compared to the gains. We paid cash for our house on 9 acres being one of the biggies.

But when your dad said your injury was as "bad as it gets" and you have "only" 50% usage I about went through the roof, what I wouldn't give for L...

<t>We just got back 10 days ago from our "cast off/therapy visit" We were there for 5 days for surgery trip and 7 for the return.
