Happy birthday, Fern!

BeyondtheRainbow, I have been writing something similar about my dad, though the situations may not be quite the same. I hope you can find some peace with the situation. I'm trying, but not there yet. Hope your kitty gets some relief from the sores soon.

Gina_re, it's nice to see you back. Sorry about your job.

bizi, congrats on the continuing weight loss! Keep at it!
