60. Happy for you and your family!!!!!

Sep 2012

I am so happy for you and your family! I am your age and have been blessed for a long time with a wonderful family, a community and house that I love.
I could have been you. I am part of the moocher 47%. I became disabled 13 years ago. If I had not been married, I would have lost everything and my children and I would have been homeless. I feel blessed each day, even on my worst ones.
We need more success stories like this and it scares me to think that the republicans will destroy any help for families or individuals.

Congratulations again!!!!!
