It forced me to re-examine my priorities, reflect on myself as a human being and actually put everything in perspective. Perhaps<BR/>the accident was a blessing in disguise.<BR/><BR/>As for Charmaine, I actually met her at the book fair where she was promoting her book and this is one gutsy little girl. Pint-sized and wheelchair bound, her courage would put a lot of adults to shame.<BR/><BR/>Take care and thank you very much for dropping by.<BR/>DanMy Denhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15099644734741964284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8118786394395142996.post-29180980559354845272008-07-21T15:14:00.000-07:002008-07-21T15:14:00.000-07:00There are definitely moments that change our lives...There are definitely moments that change our lives - turning points -<BR/>which if we can survive and learn from, I believe, will progress us in the quest of becoming better, happier human beings. Thank God, you're a survivor. <BR/>I hope you're mending well, and I'm very glad to read your blog again. The story of Charmaine Tan is touching and amazing. An inspiring young girl with a purpose.<BR/>Very best wishes to completely regaining your health.Kelihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09450973615981443241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8118786394395142996.post-53917149771899476972008-07-15T07:44:00.000-07:002008-07-15T07:44:00.000-07:00Hi realityslams,Thank you very much for your conce...Hi realityslams,<BR/>Thank you very much for your concern and I am thankful that I have been given another shot at life.<BR/><BR/>Once again, thank you for your kind comment.

And yes, it's been a trial and a frightening one. <BR/><BR/>Will be sometime though before I can resume blogging regularly as my right arm is still not fully functional.
