Christie...you are so sweet, thank you. I really hope your mother wakes up to reality and begins to take care of herself too. I always say to my parents that when someone loves you, you have a responsibility to that person to keep yourself in as good as a shape as possible. its like - why does society consider suicide a selfish thing? because of the people that loved the person, left behind and the suffering they endure. we all have a responsibility to those that love us to take care of ourselves...which is my fundamental problem with people like your mum and my dad...their actions display an inherent selfishness which I don't think stems from a bad place...just a scared place, but nevertheless, it results in an insensitivity to us...and we suffer the burden of worry. its not fair. I feel very strongly about it. i really hope I create an environment when I have kids, in which they feel they can be totally honest with me without me preferring the option of shutting them up to hearing the real truth as they see it as intelligent, sensitive and loving human beings... thanks again XXXX
