Emmo You have a beautiful attitude. I have wished for my daughter's sake many times that she didn't struggle with what she struggles with....because it doesn't make life any easier for her. However, I also try to look at it that it is preparing her for life which certainly isn't easy by any stretch of the imagination...and if she gains strength and compassion now, that will only grow. Thanks so much for your post......I'll be coming back to it when I struggle with frustration and sadness.  Paula

Paula, Emmo and Marshall, Thank you all. I have been hammered with work today, but wanted to let you know that I read the posts and agree with and thank you for your posts so you didn't think I was ignoring you.... It is definately a different "club" we are in; however I can't see wanting it different either. Emmo was on the money with that one. I want to write more soon. My days start at 4:00 AM and I still need to drive home so I will wait. (I have a good story too, little humor, lot of reality but good. It's about my minister ) I too would like to see the world through my sons eyes for a day as well. What a day that would be. Unfortunately I can only wish I was him. Paula, I remember going to the movie "Out of Africa" about 20 years ago...that was a good long one! Good night, Walt
