      From MalenaS Wednesday

      Melissa,
      Thank you so much for your quick reply. Your info really helps.

      I guess I'm feeling a little extra sorry for myself because my husband is away on a business trip. I hate it when he's gone. We have 2 daughters that have high-functioning autism so it puts a lot of pressure on me when he's not here to help. Our daughters are older 23 & 15 so they're able to do a lot, of course, for themselves. They have OCD, too, so it can get nerve racking for me. I get really anxious...unfortunately I have that type of personality. I've got to learn to calm down in order to keep my stress levels down. Fortunately, he's going to be back home tomorrow evening.

      Thanks again so very much. I feel better already. I will definitely take your advice.

      Take good care of yourself,
      Malena
