I am already very grateful for this site. Those of you who wrote to me already today have had an impact on me. Because alot of the time I feel very alone. I have a wonderful support system around me, but they have no idea what its like to go through something like this. So, to finally find a place where I can ask questions or have someone listen to me who are going through the same thing or something similiar is very comforting to me. So, thank you very much for making me feel welcome to be myself here.

    welcome
    Shannon, I am glad you found us and find comfort posting. You are so right, our loved ones, although they mean well and do the best they can, they just don't know from whence we come and there is just something about speaking with others who have walked your path either before or are currently walking with you! I pray for peace for you as you travel this road and come back often!

    Welcome
    Shannon, we welcome you with open arms. You are right, no one knows what we are going through except if you have been there. Come here often with question, for encouragement or just to talk.

    And Mary...I have a 1 yr old Grandson (Brady - he's my Avatar.) Let's talk arranged marriage! LOL! And you are not biased, she's a looker all right!
