I've just returned from a long road trip, tired but happy with the trip and happy to be in my own sweet, dear home. I am seeing this news and the news of Kat for the first time and I only wish I had wings that would fly me to the sides of those who are hurting and in need of healing.

Nigel, all I can do at this moment is stretch imaginary arms around you and hold you and your wife and daughter and her family tight, with love flowing. You are such an inspiration and we have all grown through you.

Kat, you know I am with you in healing love.

I think it's time for a healing song circle. If folks here would like it, I'll start a thread and suggest a time (I'm thinking this Sunday, 3/3, at around 8 pm Mudcat time).
I'll wait and see what some of you think before I take the plunge and start the thread.
