Bill, I obviously have not spent enough time in the forum to get to know you and to know about your suffering for which I am very sympathetic, and pleased you have pulled through.
Similarly, you don't know me who has no tolerance for religious proselytizing, which was how I understood your tag line, the same way I react to the fish on the back of cars.
My family and I have also had serious medical problems, some of which we still confront, but have never felt the urge to use a tag line to tell the world we get through life using our strong will and medical science. Prayer doesn't even figure in it.
Good luck.
Stay well
