Linda, try Milk on that ink. Then Resolve carpet cleaner.
Rach, vent away. I think you should look at traveling to another TOS pro if at all possible - a 2 year wait?! OMG, that is too long to be suffering in the place where you are now!!
Be glad you have your husband. just 1 person to place your trust in can make all the difference in sticking this thing out. The rest of us... we have the Forum and I'm grateful for that and all of you. I got my heart smashed last night and am about as low as I ccan feel (but won't vent that here). Being able to listen to you and talk to you is such a help to me... we all help eachother in ways we can't even imagine.
our families and 'friends'... it's hard to fault them for shutting down on us...this Monster is a very scary thing to battle.
hang in there sweetie!
Anne
