hi Christine--
I am so sorry that it has taken me this long to hear about your brain situation! I am over my head with my Masters classes in addition to work and family, and I haven't been visiting this site too much. I sincerely hope to change that--I really need you all!

It seems like you have things under control, but please keep us posted. My thoughts are with you!!!

Love,
Val
