    Shirley -- I am so sorry to hear about your SIL.

    I went crazy with food today while sick with worry about my Brother-n-law. He had emergency 10 hour heart surgery today. And, we couldn't even be there for him. We live clear across the country. The good news is that the surgery went well (even though longer than the 4-7 hours we were told it would be). Please note that he is a non-smoker & is not over-weight (never been). Frightening!
