> But for what it's worth, I just want to say: I think you're great. I am always glad to see your posts, and I read every one of them. I think you have a lot of smarts, and a lot of pain, and a lot of fear, and some unfair challenges, and big desire to help that breaks through the pain and fear in an impressive way here. I have no idea what your body looks like, and I won't ever see if you gain or lose weight. But I think you're marvelous. You are a marvel, and I'm glad you're here.

Actually, my first thought was, "Hm... You say you'll never know if I gain or lose weight -- so you're saying you can't tell if I get fat-headed..." AHA! I'm deflecting a compliment...
Seriously, though, thank you. That means a lot to me. I worry a lot that people think I sound pathetic, or pompous, or just idiotic, so hearing that someone sees me in a positive light feels pretty dang good. Especially someone who's posts I enjoy.
And yes, I did cry a bit when I read that...
