I would like to say that I dont know how I would have gotten through this whole experience without the help of people on this forum, and to think I only "accidently" found this forum. But on that note I really want nothing to do with the whole process ever agian, it caused me so much stress and anger. At the end of the day it was well worth it, but never again..ha
