Facebook subtab

Hey everyone...I noticed that a few people were wanting to add their Facebook website to that subtab under the TM Members Tab.
You will need to send your Facebook website to Greg and he will have to add it.
Sorry for the confusion..

Kevin

Thanks for sharing info. on this group. I really needed something more than what I was getting. I had been on other groups before & had gotten better communication and information. This is so important for folks with a physical ailment to get them thru it, esp. the difficult times. And just sharing...knowing you are not the only one going thru something this terrible.....thans again, Natalie M.

When I got TM

I am now 33 years old. I got TM when I was 28, in 2004. I was an active person, competing in figure skating and teaching pre-K 5 days a week half-days and coaching figure skating 3 times a week. I trained 4 days a week during the "school year" and 5-6 days a week during the summer.



I went to Regional Champs in January, Provincial Championships in early March, and was preparing to leave for Nationals in late March.

I didn't do well at Provincials in my free skate, felt tired and… Continue
