We all know you have supported so many here and were always one of the first to welcome the new comers.
Now it is time for you to have some 'me healing' time and we all understand.
My thanks for your friendship. Best wishes for Christmas and 2010.
Miss you already and look forward to your first post on the island when you are ready.
Love

I can't add anything to what's already been said. Take care of yourself.
