I’ve seen a lot of fun people. People have come to help me ace rehab and learn to be a full person again.
But they have each brought something different to the game.
There’s been someone who puts her hand in my face and shoves.
There’s been two someones full of good tales and gossip.
There’s been someone who doesn’t really like people.
There’s been someone that has a GPS possessed by the devil.
I have loved each one.
The laughter has hardly stopped. Even face down in the sheets. In a non sexy way.
Really.
I know these girls were all a part of my healing. They pulled for me to work harder and to be the best at what i could be.
I have always had incredible friends, with ways of making me laugh and pants I will try to steal.
I know what true love looks like.
Loyalty has a face.

Yes, Indeed. Loyalty has a face. When I worked in the hospital, I got to see it, up close and personal. One day, I entered a patient’s room where his wife, who was in her 80′s was dressed to the nines. Hubby had just returned from the john as I entered. His hospital jams were all askew and his naked, wrinkly old bum was on display. She hopped out of her chair, walked over to her husband, planted a kiss on his cheek and as she tied the gown shut said, ‘Let me get that for you.” In that one moment, I saw my whole life and felt so much love for my life and what I hoped I would have when I was her age.
Loyalty does have a face and I hope I never lose it. Have a great day!!
You are so brave and inspiring! Go Anissa!
“Loyalty has a face.”
Amen.

I loved reading this. I’ve missed you. And am supremely, absolutely, incredibly delighted that you have the support you need and deserve.
It’s so awesome that you have so many people there for you. Family and friends make all the difference in the world.
uthostage´s last blog ..If you can get past the effing Mormons, it’s all good.
So glad you’ve had so much help/company!
Also? So wish I were closer and/or made of money so I could come help, too. <3

I feel that I could never do anything without a strong support group behind me. And while I’ve never had to do anything so hard as what you’ve been through, I know that someone in your position would need that core group even more.
If we can’t laugh, share, care, hold one another and SHOVE when it’s needed… we’re nothing. What is life, at the end, but a series of moments. And what are those moments if they’re not shared!
You are amazing and a true inspiration.

Although I don’t know you I just wanted to say I think you are truly an amazing woman. The vast amount of friends you have speaks volumes. Thanks for sharing – Sandy

I am pretty sure I have never commented before or tweeted (although I follow you). I just want you to know that I am amazed by your strength. Keep it up. Amazed, you hear me, amazed.
Kat´s last blog ..Three Days of Awesome (and for once I am not being sarcastic)
I love you, lady. And I’m so happy that you have people to stick by you through this.

Rook´s last blog ..Things I have said that would pretty much seem completely out of line if you didn’t know the people I hang out with.
I need to start writing down the gossip to bring to you in June. Or, we could make up our own gossip to spread on the internets that week.
Angie [A Whole Lot of Nothing]´s last blog ..I’m a lovely shade of green, but in a good way-ish
hm. I’m not sure I had too many good tales and gossip, so I must be the one who hates people
Wish I could just slip up to Atlanta for a few days and pay you a visit. I could use me some Anissa time, laughs, hugs, boobs, etc.
Karl´s last blog ..When the Morning Comes
We all love you. Hard.
Miss Grace´s last blog ..MOAR PIKSHURS!
If you want my pants, just ask. No need to steal. I’ll mail them to you or send them with the wife when she comes in June.
You’re doing a great job by the way. Keep up the great work, even though its hard, you’re doing a great job.
