Thanks everyone. I didn't want to do the bleeding heart post initially but now I'll tell you. My friend, we grew up together, went to church together, through Youth Group, all the way thru high school, graduated together, knocked off together, probably got spanked together. I moved to Alaska after HS and he followed me there, because that's how close we are. He came back 1st, I returned a few months later to our little coal town in PA. I was listening to the only radio station when I heard the news that he went head 1st into a pond that we always swam in, and is now a quadriplegic. The great story is what a role model he is...never let it get him down, has been out to CO to see me several times, works, has a girlfriend for 10 years that I just adore, went all the way thru school, and now is getting his doctorate. I'll hope to see Redwitch at Crispers today and chat. I wouldn't normally hand my Boy over to strangers, but thought something could work out. Everything has so far in The Villages!!!
Thanks everyone for your suggestions!
