I feel your pain and repost here as before with this quote...
....from Irving Towsend which I hope will help you as they did me: "We who choose to surround ourselves with lives even more temporary than our own, live within a fragile circle; easily and often breached. Unable to accept its awful gaps, we would still live no other way. We cherish memory as the only certain immortality, never fully understanding the necessary plan." Chem, may you find peace. - Jay
