Thanks to all who left a kind note. I'm at the three month mark today, just close enough to feel anxious and just far away enough to feel unreal. Right now my focus is on getting all the money together (I'm going the student loan route) and quitting smoking (I know, very bad, but I'm having some success and certain I'll be "quit" soon). In the meantime, if anyone else happens to have Chettawut stories or experiences, I would be very happy to hear them.
