Phil, I just posted on Jens post, but I want to say, I care and I'm praying. I'm sorry you are going through this again. I have no words of wisdom, just want you to know I'm here. I will not give up and I know you won't either, we are fighters my friend, and we will fight to the end.
England 0161-432-6430 anytime I'm in, call if you want to talk.
Chris.
