Hi Rowina,
 
I, also, loved your account of your genetical background that you posted.  I didn't post anything in response but smiled as I read it.  I'm sure you read Barry Amundsen's post today; it was fantastic and so right-on.  I know that you loved it  I sent it on to my family in Germany to read.

And Rowina,  I often think of you and try to offer up prayer for you to continue in each day that Our Good Lord has given to you, to me and all of the others that are afflicted with pain, family heartbreak, financial issues and whatever else seems to be out there to make walking through this world tougher than ever.  But, we know the end...the reward of struggling through, one day at a time.  I, especially think of Charlie right now and Sonny.
 
Love,
gerlinda
