Elissa, Thanks for all your help!!! Since it is a new year I hope all gets going to support groups in 2006. Let's all make this the year that we help others while helping ourselves thru support. 2006 is the year for us all to shine. Hope all takes a moment to reflect on how far you came in the last year. I know my life is starting 2006 so much happier and healthier. Happy New Year to all. See you lighter. Joanne
