I personally think we have earned the right to be a bit "unstable" from time to time..others must give us that right..and forgive... life is very complicated and a daily struggle for us...I really, really believe that only the strong are dealt the cards of the "RSD illness" as those weaker than us would not be able to cope with it!!!!!!

Hugz to all... Kathy
