Susan,
Mel's right! Take a breath.You're awesome for wanting to help, but there's a point at which you can't offer more. Calm down & take care of yourself first.
(I think gg put it really well a while back, in a way that made me smile and reflect at the same time: "Put on your own oxygen mask before helping others with theirs.")
Also, I think B2 mentioned that she wouldn't write again til Monday (?) -- or that Scott was going to write Monday. (?) We should keep an eye out early next wk to see how they are doing.
Give yourself a break. You are NOT a failure if something happens to another person...please keep yourself sane & healthy too!
I hope you spend AT LEAST as much time on yourself as you do worrying about all of us here. :) You're worth it too. :)
