I was thinking about you the other day. I'm glad to see you are still doing well despite the mess with your husband. I don't see why you should give up on love because of your diagnosis. Life holds all sorts of surprises for us, some good ..some bad. Last year my son lost his best friend at age 18, he was like a second son to me. I never would have thought I would out live Michael. You could live for many, many years. I would just be upfront when I dated someone. That way you could weed out the bad eggs...sherry
