I mean honestly who makes that mistake on the first dive of a course?
but it was worth it...

Can't add anything more other than what's already been said. I am truly humbled by this story.

And it may make me sound like a stalker but BB sent me a thread to Helen's webpage and I read her story from the days when she was Porg to becoming who she is today.

Sometimes, just sometimes, something or someone makes you stop in your tracks, think and take stock of who you are as a person and where you are in your life. Helen's page did this to me. Not only does she write a fantastic tale, but her words hit home in so many ways. She seems to voice what a lot of us know to be true about ourselves but are too ashamed to admit.

Once again, Helen, you've made me step back and think, and for that alone I thank you.

Hats off to you.
