Congratulations Nancy, that's wonderful news, and Ann, I'm so happy to hear your Mum's doing better. My grandmother's is in need of double knee replacement, and with her age, just thinking about the upcoming surgery makes us all scared.

A happy ending. There's so many different endings that could be written that could be labelled happy, depending upon the perspective. I'm looking forward to see which one you chose.

On a complete aside, in reading the Kerth stories, I just read "Out of Her Element." I didn't get a chance to provide feedback for this on the boards, but just wanted to tell you that I loved this viginette. Nancy, you have an uncanny ability to write about real life and still bring out the fantasy element. I really hope you'll be able to continue sharing your stories with us.
