Rebirth

After a marriage, birth of son, a small business loan, a breakdown, a divorce, five EOD 
stays, fifteen councilors, six doctors, hundreds of court ordered chemical concoctions, 
hundreds of dumpsters, and a major facial reconstructive surgery later, my life began again 
when I married you, had our first daughter, got an apology from the malpracticing Doctors, 
graduated with two degrees, became a teacher, had three more beautiful kids, became an 
officer of the Masonic lodge, and became our districts Teacher of the Year.
