I think it's a good idea to step back for a while, Kim. I think many of us do that from time to time. I do agree that you should stay away from the DIHALS section at least. And also try not to take posts personally. We are all vulnerable and may, from time to time, be very sensitive - it's human nature and we are all affected by it, be it a friend, family member, or anybody for that matter. Take it easy, clear your head, and like you've heard so many times, try not to think too far in to the future. Live for today and love your father the way you do. He must appreciate that love so much. It might do him a world of good to see you bright and happy and not worry about him all the time. Don't let other people's posts upset you. You have the power to ignore them or not let them affect you. PALS passing away is always difficult to read about. So very sad. It's reality for those people and their friends or family. Take care, Kim. See you on here some time. Yasmin.
