JacksMom, please understand that my objection was not personal (as someone else pointed out). But you were new to the site, it was an unusual request, and we do occasionally get people with questionable motives here (it is the internet, after all). I care a lot about the people on this site and your request raised flags for me.

That you came back and continued to post is a really good sign and I'm beginning to believe that you had the best of intentions. Perhaps when you've established friendships on this site (which I sincerely hope you do) you'll have an easier time with such a request.

Please don't let this initial interaction with PC put you off, this is a great resource with great people.

Good luck.
