Polly, when i was dx with pd, i was also just turned 40 (midlife crisis) ending a bad marriage, involved in a major wreck, had my faith in the goodness of God shattered and a few other bad things going on - i do still believe in God, but I don't trust Him anymore to do only what's good for me... and I do see some great things which have come because of the pd, like my new life with a special lady, and almost as important, my ability to write poems which seem to reach into people and give them an outlet. My poems are listed at http://www.geocities.com/pienet/boba/index.html and you are welcome to use any of them, as long as you give me credit as the author hope your report goes well bob aka tex _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
