Dear Ahmad,
As you can see many of the happy stories that you have read about here are not about how people have had it easy and how they have coasted through life. It is also not about people who have always been happy regardless of their condition. Most of the stories involve numerous obstacles and complications that have been overcome to find this happiness and peace. Many thals have faced limitations, pain, and depression at some point in their life and we are happy to report that many of them have developed healthier and happier attitudes toward life.
We hope that you will overcome your hurdles as well, we hope that we can help you achieve physical and emotional well being because we KNOW that it can be done. I cannot say that it will be easy but it can happen if you let it.
I wish you the best Ahmad, please stay connected to us and the wonderful and inspirational people on this site. We cannot change everything but we can help you heal. Remember, it is not what you have it is what you make of it - regardless of your situation. You sound like you are trouper and that you have a lot of courage, now you need to use this courage to bring about success, happiness and change. In your 'boxing match life' - you need to block some punches and you need to take some swings at this disease.

Hey guys , it's little A here. Sorry I haven't been on in a while, i have been caught up with school work and hockey. My life has been awesome since i last posted. I am on exjade now, so I don't need desferal or a needle every day and all I have to do is drink a glass of juice. I sometimes read your guy's posts and you all inspire me to thrive towards my full potential. As I have said before, my life is basically normal in every way form playing hockey, to owning a dog, to getting in trouble because I talked in class. I love golf, reading and hockey. I love hockey. Anyways, you guys do so much for your kids, just like my mom does for me. Stay healthy
From your bro,
Little A
LOL :-) :happydance
