Sorry, I guess I didn't realize thru-hiking was such a burden where  I needed 
encouragement from others in order to finish.  I was just happy  to be out 
there taking one day and mountain at a time and never once  considered quitting.

I guess I had more issues than you did. Pain & illness.
At times I was so sick & didn't even want to move, so I just followed  Wench.
I've told her many times, that her support and her "just being there" were 
the reason I made it to Katahdin. She supported me on trail, & off  trail 
when 
I went to clinics, and saved my sorry butt from going off a ledge at least  
once 
(and picked me back up when I did go over one). Without her I never
would have made it to Katahdin, and I'm not ashamed to admit it.
 
Further responses to this topic will be made off list.
