Christine,

Thanks for calling me brilliant! You made my day. I didn't want anyone to shrink away from Clark and have him see their shock. I am so glad I did it that way.

Pat,

To get support from your family regarding your changing appearance, why not print this out and let some family members read it. Sometimes people don't know what to do, say, or act.
