As for her choice I would think it is the right one however painful it is for you.

I do believe it is a person's right to choose when they go, it is their life after all?

Thanks Russ - where have you been anyway? Nice to see you here again. And yes - I had to come to the same conclusion, It was her choice and she got to make it. I wish we had been able to talk one more time but clearly that was MY wish and not hers.

I've kinda go off Jovi for a while, think I've over done it over the years and need a brake from them. I've been very busy at work though and have just started a new business buying and selling Jeeps, seems to be going well at the mo :)
