Dear Carla,
YOu articulate so well, as that is how Barb and I feel upon impending
tests and test results. But, I know, as Barb does that we can come here
to share our feelings, and emotions and go away feeling more relieved
and positive as the compassion from all here, truly are friends in
common. Take care dear lady. We are with you, as you are with us.
God Bless
marty and Barb
