Hi Charles...yes I keep plugging and plodding with writing, for you just never know. It's hard to get people to read you.

As for helping others it's where many of us find our real calling. You have certainly found yours, and so many people are the beneficiaries of your energy and determination.

I thought of you last night when watching something on TV. It was about a young woman with a heroin addiction who'd been thrown into prison for not paying traffic fines. The hospital she had been in sent details about the vital medication she needed to be given to prevent her going into cardiac arrest. This was ignored and she died.

Hope Brendan has turned a corner. It is true. Lots of money doesn't make you any happier, especially when it lands so easily in your lap.

Hope you are well. :)
