NSR - Thanks. You've helped me to realize that this excruciatingly painful ten months has taught me I am a strong and powerful person. If I weren't I would have never made it from a place of rock bottom despair, pain, loneliness and death wishes to a place of hope and happiness. My H likes to say "with our thoughts we make the world". Simone
