Thanks everyone for your kind thoughts and words. When it rains, it pours. I just found out my mother-in-law has to have surgery next week. Since she's close to 80 years old, any surgery is major surgery, and I decided to fly down to Cali to see her for just a couple of days. **sigh** The surgery is scheduled for this coming Thursday (the 5th), please keep her in your thoughts and send her good vibes. Thanks! I'm so lucky to have such a wonderful mother-in-law. It's true, if you asked me who my hero is, I'd have to say her. She's had diabetes all her life, and has to have dialysis 3 times a week, but still manages to be just a ray of sunshine whenever I talk to her. She could be a total grump about everything in her life, but she's just not that way. Even when she told me about having this surgery she talked about it like it's no big deal. I love her dearly.
