Thanks for the response, Peter. Based on everything I've read (including some of the comments that were posted here), I'm bracing myself for what might be an excruciating experience. I just hope it ends up being a lot better than what I'm anticipating.

You know, I don't think I've ever felt this close to a group of total strangers. It's
certainly empowering to be in touch with people who are fighting the same battle.

regards,
Gino
