Thank you all so much for your kind thoughts. When I got myself to the computer this morning, and saw all of you sending thoughts, and energy for me, I felt better already. I'm still not sure what has gotten hold of me, but I feel relatively human today.
When Michelle saw all of the lovely responses you all sent, she finally "got it", about why I'm so crazy about all you here.
Your messages have indeed touched my heart.
I always knew I loved you guys, but it has been confirmed yet again in these words of kindness.
You guys really rock.

PS - There is a special someone who sent me a lovely bouquet of sunflowers, and to that person, I say thank you, with all my heart. Next time I see you, you will be totally smothered with sloppy aids kisses! :-*  ;D  ;)
