I sometimes read people's posts and am just in awe of the people on this site. Everyone expresses themselves so eloquently and that is so very cool. Anyway, you have gotten some REALLY great advice/tips/suggestions/feedback from everyone else and I don't think I can really add to it, but I agree with everyone else before me.

I think you are human, G, and you are a very loving, caring person who feels things deeply so it stands to reason that you are taking this hard, but you are self-aware enough to know that you can't just lie down and let it beat you. You have responsibilities and you are facing them.

My heart still breaks for you, as the pain is so real and so deep, but I know there are brighter, sunnier days free of pain ahead. And, now, that White Snake song will forever be seared in my mind as G's song...I heard it last night and had that thought. LOL wink
