Scott Adams's Inspiring Story
For those of you who are fans of Mr Adams's Dilbert comic strip, you'll know that he's been the source of a lot of wry, rueful and outright manic laughter through the years by his deft and humorous depictions of the insanity that is the corporate world.

Please go here and read his blog entry about a medical problem he's had for almost 2 years and how he's found a way to prove the doctors wrong. His success might not be permanent (I sincerely hope he has a complete recovery), but whether it is or isn't isn't the point. The point is Mr Adams refused to give up and has tried to come up with his own solutions.

Please also leave a positive comment as others have done. I think you'll see that there are many many wonderful stories.

I posted. Now you go.

Addendum -- Here is the AP news story posted Sunday, 19 Oct.: Ailing 'Dilbert' cartoonist talks again

    Never give up. The only worthwhile thing you need to know. That and how to make a decent margarita...

    Absolutely, Mummy! Although since I don't drink alcohol (or cawfee, uck!), I'll lift my tea and salute instead. :-D
