JaneEyre9 Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 Hey folks!I was able to defend my master's thesis today! My committee has approved me to receive my degree!! HooRAY! I was very close to finishing last April when POTS hit me full force (I was struggling long before then!!). This past year has been such a struggle. Most importantly, I was able to sit up to give the presentation today. Using a wheelchair helped immensely. I have been trying to graduate for so long that today it feels as if i'm floating on a cloud! And not in a sick POTSy way for once ;-)Thanks for letting me share the good news. I know you all can appreciate the obstacles I had to overcome to do this. Kristen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
