Every time I start to feel sorry for myself, I am always reminded of my friend who is fighting cancer or the other one who just died of complications due to a tumor surgery. I don't have it as bad as others. I realize that. But instead of just sitting around doing nothing, I have decided to fight it.
I don't ask "Why me?" and I never will. Instead, I ask "Why not me?" I mean "Why not?" It has to be someone, right? And I'm probably the right one too. I am a determined person who is very detailed-oriented but can see the larger picture at the same time. Because of my trials, I (we) have established this club and this forum, and it's quite successful considering we are "just" a bunch of barefooters and minimalists. The BRS and its members are helping others. We are affecting change. And I have created the MN Talk forum discussion board, which is still very small but growing. MN Talk is the first board dedicated to only Morton's Neuroma. Through MN Talk, I am helping others to avoid the mistakes I have made over the past four years with doctors and procedures, so I hope as it grows, I (we) will be able to help more and more people. So, "Why not me?"
