    HI Jane,

    sorry you need us but glad that you've found us :wink:

    ask away and never be scared to ask what seems to you to be obvious or silly - most things have been asked many times before and if they haven't then there is usually someone out there who's wishing someone would ask it!! :wink:

    Hi Jane,
    welcome to the forum - I only discovered it recently and have found it a lifeline! I don't know how else I would have coped .. because I don't feel I can keep on talking about the issues surrounding arther with folks who don't have it.
