Laura, thank you so much for such a loving, thoughtful post. Please know that you have been and continue to be appreciated and loved by this community! As Becky stated - "Knowledge is important here, but so is love, compassion, understanding, which you have in abundance. Please don't ever question your value". You have so much compassion and understanding. You were one of the first to respond to some of my earlier, anxiety ridden posts and to PM me. Your encouragement meant SO MUCH to me!
You are a dear, dear soul, and I wish you moments of peace and hopefully happiness. I am glad you are still reading the posts, and please just check in now and then, as able, to say "Hi".
Love to you!
