The roller coaster is real for me too, Joanna. Most recently it hit me hard when regular ole diabetic neuropathy was the pilliw I landed back in from shingles pain, but I was a hair away from sounding like a panicked C-3P0 for almost two months after.

I truly hope you find some balance. I am trying to keep a positive frame of mind, though sleep deprived, stiff, sore, and so on.

I get the impression you dealt with your friend much more graciously than I may have. My silver tongue. Hold onto that grace, I'm trying to work in that direction.

My best,

Jon
