Accomplishing anything while in great pain is difficult enough but graduating with a 4.0 is a magical feat. Much congrats. You've earned it and deserve it.
You have a lot to be proud of. Dale

Great news. I told you that you needed to be persistent as that is what gets the answers. I can only hope that you can get the much needed treatment to get your spinal situation taken care of to continue pursuing the rest of your goals. Hang in there. I am really happy for you and, congratulations.
