Alison- thanks for your encouraging post. It is certainly true that the body works to heal itself, and the best we can do is put it in the right environment for it to do so. I have all my fingers crossed for me (and you and dawn and everyone else, too!!!)

stardust- yes, my mom left today. You have a good memory.

Such a strange feeling to be here in my home, where I am usually the supreme caretaker, and be so helpless, My mommy was here baking cinnamon buns and chocolate cakes for me in between carting my kids to school, doing all the laundry, the cooking, and the cleaning..and above all making sure we were stocked up on mint chocolate chip ice cream.

she was ready to go and i was ready for her to leave, but I really felt lonely today once everyone went off to work and school...as all the days were very full while she was here. It was the best visit we've had in a long time. I forced myself not to do too much...cooked a frozen dinner and slept on the couch a bit.

as usual, rambling with no real purpose.

got to go
