Congratulations! Really quite an inspiring read and I'm glad it all worked out for you.

If I could, I think I'd wear the Law Enforcement Officer's Memorial Tartan to work (being a Police Officer) but I know it'd violate uniform regs. Someone a few pages back posted about wearing a uniform but considered wearing a kilt; my advice would be to really read up on your uniform regs before trying that. You may violate them, and then be disciplined, which no one wants.
