Noahsmommy...Don't feel bad for sharing this! I am so sorry that you are hitting a rough spot. I know how frustrating it can be when you have a strong desire and others try to discourage you. My mother has always tried to discourage me. It's almost as if she doesn't want me to do better then her.

I think that you have the heart and the desire to do this. There are plenty of people in the world that have ailments and accomplish their goals. This will be tough for you, but you will feel really good once you are done. Do not give up!
