You've had so much to cope with in the last while, dot Mom. May God's grace be with all of you at this difficult time. I pray that treatmrents may resume, and that as much healing as is possible may come about in her being. (((((DFN, Dok, dot Mom and family))))) My prayers for all of you. ole joyful

Happy belated birthday Glenda! I didn't have internet to wish you happy birthday on time.

Greetings, Mary Ann and Jammer. I, too, am sending good thoughts and hopes your way, Mary Ann. Along with some warm hugs. ((((((Mary ann and Jammer)))))) And prayers to the One who loves us with a limitless, everlasting love, that things may go well with you and that complete healing may be forthcoming. During a recent discussion on the causes of a someone's enjoying good health, someone suggested that good genes help a lot. Someone else said that a positive attitude, feeling at home in this precious world that God has given us was very important. And someone else said that taking care of one's body, mind and spirit were very important components, as well. It appears that you've done well on most of those counts, so far. Keep up the good work. ole joyful

I read all the responses to you, lindalou, and thank you for saying what is in my heart. I don't know how I got here but I was thrilled to find everyone. It is amazing how connected I get to the these folks and their stories and think about them when I am going about my day. I learn from the sage advice here and others struggles and recently changed my approach to a situation I was in because it was the best way to handle it. Needed you. Need you. I also laugh a little more and longer. I am among the ones who read the KT first. I also want to win jasdip's trivia contest sooo badly but I have strong competition who, like me, are almost always wrong. If there ever is a question that asks what do 1 in 3 people at a certain kitchen table do every day I think we would all get the answer right. I do wish the best for everyone here in the future. Happy New Year. (My cat just caught a fly.. thought you ought to know)
