I am doing whatever I can to help, without intruding, as much as possible. (sigh) It ain’t easy.

You can only do what you can, and you stepped up immediately to try. Good job!

Lynn-Dah does not want to share her Mom.

I guess not.

But I understand. We both needed a friend at the same time, and have not yet determined who rescued who.

I am hitting the sack now...tired.

Good night all.
