I have heard of this sort of change in people with tumors before, and in a way at least his past behaviour can be explained and was not meant to harm, which is a relief I guess.<BR/>Perhaps you can have compasionate leave from workx2 to visit your daughter. If not,work might take your mind off things for a while. All those bright little children don't give you much time to think during the day do they! It works for me sometimes.<BR/>I didn't know about Harry either. Gosh, I feel so helpless! All I can do is send best wishes to you Maggie and your family.xSuburbiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05352465945711496612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3573997081449536840.post-76332507030580532172008-04-19T20:20:00.000+01:002008-04-19T20:20:00.000+01:00Aims........ sorry to hear you have one too.
