Hi nide
I am still somewhat new here but have received alot of help and good pointers. I hope I can pass one on to you - I too have lost a long thread when I sent it to post so now I always highlight and copy it quickly before I send it off. So far I have never lost a post since I have been "saving" them - but you know "murphys law".........

I also emphathise deeply with your situation, especially with the holidays. I am sending you oodles and oodles of warm telepathic hugs!
