Starr......I truly believe:
We are all connected;
We all have gifts;
We all have needs.....

The timing and the way we come together is the mystery....but it works out pretty well.

Courage has not been one of my better assets in these last few years but I am working so hard on it.
I know it isn't, Cyn, you're faced with challenges no one should have to face, and you face them every day. That's the "ordinary" I mean, and it's something you face every day. And of course, given a choice, you'd make all that go away and have your DH back to good health and everything back to normal. And given a choice, I know that's what everyone who supports you would wish for you, and make it happen if that were possible....

Of course you don't feel like you are strong, on the contrary, I am sure. How could anyone feel brave in your situation, as you slog through the little details of your life as it is now....? But you know, you don't have to feel courageous to be courageous, and while you might feel on a regular basis that you're one second away from falling off the precipace, and anything but brave, you still carry on and show that bravery every day......

I'm so sorry. It must be hard to be so far away.

You have it, even when you don't think you do and even when you don't feel very courageous or strong.

I wish you a peaceful night.

Sorry for posting this twice, but I wasn't sure which was the best thread to post it in. Has anyone ever tried this stuff? Do you like it? Does it work well? Have you seen it anywhere else for less? My sister has asked me to get some for our mom.

Medline Remedy Olivamine cleansing lotion

Thanks.
