Courtney,
Oh! I see where it went now.
As you've seen i my posts, I suffered a brain injury in 2006 and have
declining health from that and other issues. My son has autism and
multiple medical issues. We are living on shoestring budget. I have
gone through depression and anxiety. And life is often complicated for
any number of reasons. I want to assure you that I needed people to
talk to yet didn't always have someone, and it rotted!
So the offer still stands! smile
Sincerely,
Charisma
