I, too, sometimes wonder if I am torturing myself needlessly by coming on this site and reading the not-good news. Then I realize how uplifting the good-news stories are, and how good the people here are me - - not only to help me understand what will be happening, but also how to cope with the tangle of emotions I feel from day to day. After a very long day, Tom had a good night. We are planning a few little things today to get him out of the house and give him something a bit more interesting to do than sit at home. His weight went down again while he was in the hospital...it is 133 today, so we are doing damage control......... Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. Nicki
