Dear Phil, Thanks for taking the time to respond to my post. That was very kind of you. I do consider myself to be a tak3 charge get it done sort of person. You're absolutely right, Phil, I do need to develop a strategy to deal with it with or without the emotional support from my husband. Others have suggested starting a support group near me. I like the idea and will begin working on that soon. Thanks for your support. I'm very lucky to have found this list, so full of caring and wonderful people.
