Finally, Kim, the lady that I have become friendly with, brought me to see a real laboratory in the section where Douglas Kerr works and not only was I able to see his office and be a part of his world for a moment, but I was able to meet two other incredible people that I have learned to appreciate and to admire just as much as I admire the doctors that work with them.
Chitra, a beautiful and brilliant woman from India, made a big difference in the world of science and of medicine.
She welcomed me with her bright and kind smile and she, and her colleague Deepa, showed me around the lab and explained a couple of things for me to learn.
I felt so comfortable with them to feel like I had known them forever and I was able to be open and to really show who I am, without having to worry at all!
While I had shared with Kim my latest idea for a new type of fundraiser, it took me by surprise when she shared the work of my new campaign with the other women.
I was thrilled to see that all of them were just as excited about it as I am and I loved their response: they are going to talk about it on their website and they are going to talk about it in the newsletter which gets sent to the MS patients and to the ones with Transverse Myelitis.

Well, I know that lots of you, don’t really know what I am talking about and here, I have to explain something that will take one more page of reporting!

In the month of May, after coming back from my “miracle trip” back to my country, while walking around in the Botanical Gardens in New Jersey and while following the steps of a cute little bunny, I started talking to a woman and her friend who, just like me, were interested in flowers, plants and nature.
What started as a simple conversation between strangers, turned out to be something really special.
We spent most of the morning together and we walked, talked, took pictures and I learned to love a stranger.
She is a special, inspirational woman who had the power to change me, to add something amazing to my life and she was able to open my heart and bring it to wonderful heights.
She told me that I was going to do something in my life, she said that I could do anything that I would set my mind to, she promised to keep in touch and, from that day on, she became someone very important to me.
She wrote to me, every single day. She sent me inspirational thoughts and poems, medical articles, papers about natural doctors and medicine and she started sending me beautiful pictures of flowers.

I knew she loved to take pictures and, with her very good camera, she takes wonderful shots of the most beautiful flowers around.

I loved to receive them and, while feeling very humble, I started sending her my own little artistic photos, which she then took and touched up by adding to them an extra touch.
This relationship grew more and more each day and it took an even more special turn about a month ago, right after my latest attack, my hospital visit and my recovery.
