We will all be here for you when the time comes, meantime HUGS girl, thanks for sharing this with us, it really makes one think.
Don't feel sorry for me...I'm kind of looking forward to it. probably would have considered it anyways, but would be to chicken and couldn't justify spending that much money. But now, I have more reason to do it. Which, BTW, my mom was able to get hers covered, but I doubt Kaiser will cover mine. I'm lucky they even cover anything!
