LOL- I am inept on computers. I thought I had put a "signature" on; success this attempt hopefully.
Thank you all for your responses. BTW, DavidCPA; no hubby, this is all me.
I am very fortunate to have family and friends- and a puppy- who will help me through this. One of the bigger challenges at this point is how helpless everyone feels. I keep telling them not to worry, that the time Will come when I need them desperately! And again, thanks in advance, because I will be relying on you who have already started/are on this journey for info and support. As for what I have to offer? Not much at this point, because I am in full denial, which I am perfectly ok with. To me, stocking up on supplies is an excuse to shop, even if it isn't for shoes. (Please excuse the brevity; I am sure that will change over the coming weeks, though I am sincerely hoping not.)
