Hi, Angelia -

The part of you that wants to know is winning so you *can* get on with your life. Not looking back is another story, but you're your best advocate, which is the best any of us can do.

I agree with Anita - you've done a marvelous job of getting on, moving forward AND raising awareness. You really have become an inspiration.

I'm sending every bit of positive energy I can muster your way.

Marlene
