Sounds like you're doing great, Val! One thing our sitches are great for are acting as a launching pad to reconnect with family. I have come to realize that my family has been the true constant in my life when I always thought my W would be instead.

I'm also glad that you're doing so much to help out your nephew. It sounds like your "sitches" share some pretty similar elements. Sometimes, just being around someone who's going through something like what you're going through is helpful in itself.

In this life, you have a limited amount of mental currency. You get what you pay for, so spend it wisely.

So it goes. --Kurt Vonnegut
