Suzanne Silva-- I have just posted instructions about the CARE list for CGs of PWPs--may I suggest that you join that sublist?

I'm glad that you have found your way back to this loving community of people at a time when one needs "all the support one can get". In case you missed it, the way to join CARE is to send a message to: [log in to unmask] In body of post put only: SUBscribe CARE (your first and last names) I hope to "see" you there soon!
