I am so not understanding how this really works.....is my comment automatically e-mailed to you or do you have to log on here to read it and how do you answer any questions?? 

What church are you affiliated with??  My husband & I attend an Assemblies of God up here in Mass.  We're going on a mission trip to London, England which a lot of people think is strange but they're really hurting over there.  Their economy started to tank way before last fall and they have opened up to so much immigration that their attempt to keep peace between all religions is to supress expressions of all of them.  People are being discouraged to wear crosses to work and sometimes outright forbidden to do so.  The Islamic population is pressing hard to obtain shahira law in their communities and parents are being legally prosecuted if they attempt to keep their children out of classes that promote the homosexual lifestyle.  Their Oxford dictionary just came out and they have eliminated words like sin and absolution etc. because they say they are so muti-cultural that there's no place for such indiviualized concepts.

So we're going to hold up their arms and minister to the Teen Challenge group there too.

In short, they are experienciong what America is going into.

Now, aside form all that...as to your health; have you started menopause yet?  I am, this year, post-menopausal and was very glad to view Dr. Braverman on Thursdays program.  Did you watch it?  I think his book would be a great guide for you based on your comment that you're experiencing the all too common down side of unhealthy factors in your life.  Me too.

Rock on,  Renee
