((((((Nikko)))))),

Since there's no official boo-boo kisser anymore, maybe these will help http://www.mcphee.com/items/11472.html

All that waiting is hard, huh I wish I could make the time go bye faster (and calmer). At least it gives us all a chance to ramp up our praying for ya'

*Your Mom* -- I swear -- what are we gonna do with her!!?? At least there'll be no more temptations in the house for her. I watched Dr. Phil today. There was a guy who drank double-sized, super-strength beers -- he could get plastered on just 4 beers It's sad that we haven't figured a way to stop that. My Dad was an alcoholic. But, it never affected his work. He was a sleepy drunk ... so it did affect us kids. I've got some idea of what you live with -- I wish you didn't. I wish your Mom's health would act like a "wake-up call" to her...

Well, Nikko, visualize dozens-and-dozens of boo-boo-kisses from all the people that care about you here. And, knowing you, I'm sure I'll have to say: "make sure you don't over-do ... housework and such"

BIG HUGS (and love).
