Katie, Thank you for your kind words of encouragement. Rayilyn, I don't know what I would do without you. It was wonderful talking to you on the phone when I was in LA. I am so grateful for the friends I have made these past 3 years. All of you have helped me so much and touched my life in ways that you will never know. I was watching a movie on TV last night. The main character was very depressed....he had isolated himself in his home.... it was in complete disarray and filthy. A caring friend came over and asked him if he was thinking about committing suicide.... His response was priceless and so very well put. He said:: NO, I am not going to commit suicide! The way I see it, I would just go to hell and that would be simply redundant. What a wonderful way of putting things as to how I feel about this disease and what I feel about the alternatives in that respect. I laughed until my sides hurt. Hugs and our deepest gratitude to all!
