David, that must have been a tragic irony for your dentist to get oral cancer. But, at the same time, it must have really helped you to be able to relate and see a person surviving.

Sue,
I don't even know what to say. I guess we all handle it in different ways. I hope that all looks good tomorrow and that you can get some good news. I'm sorry that you have had to bear the brunt of Ron's lash-outs. It can't be easy for anyone. I will be thinking of you both and please keep me posted.

xoxo to you all!
