Hi Suzanne,

You are right......it would be nice if this was something none of us had to endure BUT listen to Kelly. She is a wise woman. This "journey" you are embarking on is tough. Way beyond words. But, that being said, I repeat what Kelly said and know that you will get through this like we did. And, also I agree with what she said in that what you will learn and gain from your experience will go beyond anything you could imagine. Yes, again, Kelly is right in her saying "what a gift this experience has been." (man that Kelly is a smart cookie) Of course this all takes time. Afterall, it's a journey - a long, hard one. Things will be learned each step of the way and you will be amazed at how differently you will look at life and all it's blessings. Sending hugs and love to you "sister."

Also hoping the "prickly" head leaves you soon. It didn't last just too long for me. Just a few days before the hair came out and maybe a week or two past that.

Peace to you friend,

Mary Jo
