My name is JC Atom and I have been meaning to poke around this site and Dean's books for quite some time. I'm twenty-three years old and I have been ill for most of my childhood/adult life. Finally, through the work of the Mayo Clinic, I am normal; well, maybe I won't go as far as "normal," but you get the idea. Haha. Anyway, due to my illness I haven't been able to accomplish anything of worth and I think it's time to change that. All of my friends are going to med school now, or are just a few years away from becoming physicists. I have been stuck in a rut that I have believe has enveloped me, but what's worse, is that this whole time the financial tribulations has fallen to my mother, whom I adore. Right now, this is just a wish; a daydream. Nevertheless, It's one that I'd like to keep alive. I will find a way to pay that woman back - I will. However, I truly hope it is through the teachings that I will learn while reading Dean's books.
What scares me though is the financial obligations that come with the training/mentoring of this program. It's scary stuff, but as I read and begin to learn more of Dean's teachings, I hope that SOME of my fears subside. The last thing I want to do is put myself into a more burdensome position to those whom I love.
We'll see, I guess.
Good luck to all of those to endeavor to better their lives and those of whom they cherish.
