    They know. More than you can imagine. Thus why I plan to spend tomorrow night with my big yellow boy. If you can, get a copy of the Tao of Equus. Amazing stuff, whether you're a horse person or not.

    Can you volunteer at a local therapeutic horse center? Might be good for them and you. I don't know how people function without a horse. I saved my first horse, and later he did the same for me during a rough teenage career.

    I am really sorry, and I will keep you and your family in my thoughts. My Mom had cancer and I know how tough it can be on the whole family. Hang in there.

    (((sun))) I'm so sorry. May you have an abundance of travel and healing graces. May the doctors have wisdom in plying their trade. May your family have peace.

    Sundial I'll keep you and your Mother in my thoughts. I'm sorry you're going through such a trying time, hang in there I've often found I learned some of my best lessons in life when struggling and also how strong I really can be. I'm sure you and your Mother will learn some huge insights from this whole ordeal. It's wonderful that you have each other to lean on too.

    Thinking about you and your family. I've been through the cancer thing a few times now with family members and I truly understand how difficult it is. Take care and do what you need to do for yourself. ((((((HUGS)))))).
