- Hi Gordon and Linda,
Thank you. This week has certainly been that of self discovery. I now know how much I can endure, and have a new appreciation on how precious life can be.
Thank you for the encouragement.

- Thanks Gordon.
Im fiding that Im actually loving having my own bed in my own room. I have spent years sneaking around trying not to disturb the sleeping dragon! Its nice, though Im wishing I scored the big bed with the ensuite! My partner is quite likely a cantidate for all this also, not a good sleeper but boy can he snore when he does:)
Glenda.

- I know, Gordon, the lack of education out there (here!) is appalling. I'm bound and determined to find some way to make a difference in this area. There are so many people suffering and they don't even KNOW it until they're so exhausted they can't function. That's what happened to me, and a lot of people on SG.
I'd be willing to bet that stock in just about any DME device is gonna go sky high before it's over. Make hay while the sun shines, boy!!
