Jak, Sue, and rysmom: Thank you all for your comments. I really appreciate hearing that my little story struck some chords. It's true we don't deserve this kind of pain, but this is what the universe has handed us and now we are all brothers and sisters, helping each other deal with it. Bless you all!
