Oh Carolyn,
Where the heck have I been? I never saw this post. I can tell you one thing, I cannot comfort you any better than what Micki has poured out in the post above this one. She has captured what I would want to tell you and I won't even begin to try and add more meaning to those lovely words.

I think you know how much your friendship means to me, and to everyone here. I'm standing firm with Micki in that I'm here if you need me. You are sooo loved! Feel it gal...lean on it! Use us...because we really do care. And if you want to scream, then scream! You can call me at home anytime and just vent, cry, scream, whatever. You've got my number. I love you dearly my friend, JJ
