Here's the conclusion I reached about OCF today -- hopelessness and despair have very few friends here... maybe none at all.

You want to cry? Sure. You want to vent and get angry? Go for it. You want to share your fears? Absolutely. You want to celebrate the good reports? Anytime, any day. You want to ask questions, even those that have been asked dozens of times by others? The doors always open and shoulders are always available.

But if you want to give up and lay down, this is not the place for you... Wow...

Let me say again -- it's an honor to be associated with such great people who truly know how to live and face anything and everything that life throws at them... Thanks for lifting my spirits time and time again...
