Isn't that always the case. You think your going along, smooth

sailing, pain is controlled, and then just when you least expect it;

the bottom falls out. I hope this bad spell does not last too long

for you.

We used to have the same thing with summer houses. My mother and

her siblings had a beach house on Sullivans Island. Every summer we

would pretty much just camp out there, home was just across the

river, but the freedom of being on beach was hard to resist. Every

family had 6-9 kids and it was always crowded with kids running in

and out, uncles with cold beers, aunts with homemade pies. Those

days are a treasure I will never forget. For years our reunions, as

you said, were weddings and funerals. Ocassionally, I'll bump into

some one in the store and it doesn't take long to start laughing

about the crazy childhood antics. I have one cousin, my age, and

he still blushes bright red when we recall I saw his butt in 1972.

I hope your pain subsides and your able to make one of your cousins

blush too.

Warmly,
