Oh, no! I’m so sorry, **jsgoddess**. And I can extend **supervenusfreak** ’s condolences as well. I remember losing my father and what my mother went through that first 48 hours. There aren’t even words.

How awful, terrible, horrible. You helped me once when I really needed it. I was so grateful and still am. I wish there was something I could do to help you, but there are no words or deeds that would suffice, that will make it better. {{{{HUGS}}}}
