I can only send my prayers and support, I had the overwhelming aloness, with my daughters life on the edge last year, I had such support from the forum that it got me through. Her life was by a thread and her own father never showed up for the multiple surgeries as they tried to save her.

I got such strength to get through whatever I would face from having hundreds from the forum send me prayers, wishes and support. When things improved they all celebrated that things were Ok too.

I pray all works out for your friend and you, I wish there were a pills for these anxiety's that pull us into a chest crushing emotional toil.
You are loved, and cared for,
I hope you can get this warm ol' hug I am sending.
Di
