Congratulations! A year is huge! I know you have been here before, but I think that makes it even more amazing. So many can never make it back, and you are proof that we can. You are one I watch and respect immensely around here, you are making a huge difference in so many lives, and I thank you for that. Keep fighting the good fight. Congrats again!
