Hi Dianne,we salute you.

You made yourself quite clear since yours first message.We got it.I appreciate the
sincerity in yours words.Of course choices im medication requires a lot of good sense
and right judgement.It is not always a simple decision in what to do due to the
limitations in ours present knowlege about everything.Many of ours basic questions are
still to be responded correctly and precisely.However you made a point in calling the
attention in a matter that sometimes we dont't give all the care it needs.
