Paul,
Firstly before I forget. In replying to you now, I needed to replace your
addy with the lists. Not sure why sometimes one has to do that and other
times not. Hmmm. Are you sending it perhaps off the web and not out of
Outlook or something? I'd think there is something you are doing there.
In reply to your request I have done so. That has got to be difficult to
watch a child suffer so young. But perhaps he'd find usefulness in looking
at other people that endured challenges and made it into a motivation
rather than desperation? Easier said than done, I know from personal
experience in myself.
