Hi Sarah: Thanks for posting this.

(By the way, you mentioned you're in your upper 60's. I'm 72!)

I had written you a whole long reply. Then I lost my internet connection & everything I had written dissolved into cyberspace. And unfortunately I don't have the fortitude to re-create it all.
My personal messaging system, here on PC, is locked out. (I'm a reclusive old troll.)

But if you wanted to talk about GID-related issues at-length (I've struggled with this my entire life) let me know in a reply here in this thread & I will open my PM system so we can "talk". Best wishes...
