Glad to see the smiley face at the end of your message. It is very important to go in there with a positive attitude. Ever since I read the book 'Head First' by Dr. Norman Cousin in 1990, I remind myself constantly about 'the power of positive thinking' that Dr. Vincent Peale had preached long, long time ago. Dr. Cousin detailed how physiological evidence (Endorphin - the 'happy hormone' that boosts our immune system)was 'in' to validate the power of 'positive thinking'.

Best wishes to you, my dear 'sister'. With these many 'positive' warriors lining up behind you, there's nothing 'we' can not conquer!
