Haven't seen you around much lately, but I have this feeling you'll be around today. 21 aye, don't do anything that I wouldn't do. hehe

I hope you have many more birthdays in the years ahead.

Guess I should have said that because it's actually what I meant.

Thanks everyone for the best wishes. Turning 21 isn't a real big deal here - I could drive at 16, vote at 18, drink (legally) at 19 (my one beer a day!).

Finished my first year of college after working for a year after high school - went really well. Now I'm working for a lighting and rigging company for the summer doing concerts, plays, etc. In fact today I have to work a double shift - some birthday present. BUT, I'll be partying on the weekend!

Ann, you're absolutely right about smelling the roses. Almost four years now since I was given a new life and I appreciate it a lot more.

Thanks again all.

Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you!!!

Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you!!!

Happy Birthday Brad!!

It?s wonderful to hear you are doing so well. Is there any chance you will make it to the Chicago reunion? That would be really cool!

Remember my son, Ryan... who also has a dilated aorta & connective tissue disorder? He?ll turn 20 in two weeks. He?s ready to have the surgery and get it over with, although his valve isn?t dilated to the point its necessary. The cardio recommends we have it done before he finishes college. I?m not sure how I feel about having heart surgery as ?preventative? kind of deal. I told Ry I think he should stay in school and go for a doctorate!!

Tell your Dad I said, ?hello? Nice hearing from you, Brad.

No big deal??

No big deal??

Turning 21 in any culture is a very big deal. Most of us old folks start to see you as an adult.
Well.....not including me. I will be a kid forever.

Happy Birthday
