Thanks my friends.
Petunia is right, we are still struggling with our loss.
The alters are all at different stages of the "grief cycle",
not surprizing really, as they are all different ages.
The littles are still in denial & anger, but most of the bigs have progressed (?) to the depression stage.
At least we are finally out of the wheelchair & back on crutches, although we are very afraid of falling again.

Just what we needed, another fear
Thanks for keeping us in your thoughts & special thanks to the newbies who don't know us.
