Dearest Kim:

My eyes also overflowed upon reading of sweet Melissa's fate. Impotence at
the impossibility of preventing some of this world's uglier occurences.

This only reinforces my deep conviction that "Tomorrow doesn't
exist"...thus, we must love each other, support each other and be the best
we can be TODAY, fore there is no promise that the next dawn will find us
among the living.
Melissa and her family are in our prayers.

Bottom line for lactnetters:  Nurse as long as you want, sleep with your
kids as long as seems necessary and comfortable, hug and caress and cuddle
limitlessly from infancy on into adulthood.....and turn a deaf ear to all
those who would discourage us from doing what our inner voices prompt us to
do.
