Thanks MUE and MKAC....it really helps to think "normal" in this case.

I just keep remembering when I drove out there to visit her, and as little as she is, she gripped tightly on to my finger. Her little fingers couldn't even wrap around my whole finger...her arm is smaller than my finger. She is't much bigger than a Barbie doll. But she has spunk. I honestly hope that she fights thru this.

I wouldn't like it if my H didn't have my back. There are times when he disagrees with me, and tells me he thinks I am wrong. He won't get angry with someone just because I am....but if I am very hurt by someone, he generally stands up for me.
