Thank you so much (((Vera))) and (((Larry))) for your kind posts. I have missed the GT community while I was away, but am so happy to be back home with my internet connection and with my GT friends. You are right Vera that I have made some friends for life on this site. It was comforting to have Cat at my side during that time. My initial meeting with Cat was in Edmonton, when Bettie was visiting me. I’ve had the pleasure of visiting with Liz and Bettie twice, in Canada and the US. I’ve visited with Reds and Larry at a GA conference in Chicago. Even though I have never met Vera in person, we have communicated by phone and through email, that I feel like I know her so well that it’s like we have met. I have met several friends of the heart through this site. Carole
