I am glad to know that I am welcome here... I have felt very alone and sad trying to help Sporty with his ordeals and not really sure how to answer him at times or how to approach certain situations but since he has shown me this web site and I have read many of the posts that are generated from all the kind and loving people who have been there before. It really makes me feel better now to know that I have some where to go for advice. That he has a place to go when I am at work and cannot help him with what is going on at that particular moment.It is a wonderful thing to know that he can go to this web site and post what he is feeling and can chat with others to help him get through this difficult time until I can come home and be there for him. He has talked about you all so much that I feel like I know most of you already and since I have read many of your posts, I feel like I can relate to you  through Sporty. I will close for now and hope to hear from all of you. Again, thank you all for all the love and support you give to each and every one who has been through this door.....

Love, Shining Star
