come on like a Bear with my response but I

have gotten that in the past and it just makes me crazy no matter how well

meaning a person is. I have had family members (loving as they are) say

similar things to me. People dont understand unless they walk in the shoes.

THe other thing that makes me nuts is " GOd only gives you what you can

handle " My family does not say that to me any more. I know your fear all

too well. Still pecking away at the supplements. Doing 5HTP right now and

it is working out very well. Also added Vit C and E as I read you should

give that a few days before fishoils. Once I have it all worked out I will

be doing the enzymes. I just got the Hair Elements test yesterday and

quickly sent it off so I am anxious to get those results also. Have a Happy

New Year to all of you and lets hope and pray great things happen for our

children in the upcoming year. Eileen
