I want to thank everyone who has responded to my posts over the course of this week.  They've helped me make some important decisions in regard to tapering from here on out.  They've also served to remind me of how thankful I am to have found you guys.  You all know a lot more about all this than I do and I've really soaked up your thoughts and stories.  This has all served to help me go on in a positive way.  I really lacked that coming in.  I plan to  definitely stick around.  Who knows, maybe I'll even to get to the point where I can be of encouragement to someone as I grow in hope and knowledge about all this.  Again, thanks to all of you.  So glad to be here.

Thanks for your reply.  The affirmation that I might have something going to help me on the path here means a lot to me.  I'm just now starting to look at things differently and in a much more positive way.
