Carole, Ted got through the last battle and made it home in one piece. He is a fighter and we're all praying for him to make it through this one as well. Asking for help in difficult times (and not so difficult times) is what the list is all about and don't worry about what others think. No one would fault you for asking for whatever you want or need in this difficult time. With deepest caring, Charlie "Carole K.
