@contentandwell thanks, I'll look into those websites. While I've never had a transplant, I have very fair-skin and look for good ways to protect it from sun. I also get rashes from the chlorine in the pool, I go to a very nice 24/7 health club that always looks very clean, so it must be the chlorinated water that gets to me. Have you found any help for that? Thanks, Teresa

@hopeful33250 - I've often wanted to double like some comments too!

@contentandwell - When we go through life's trials they change us, usually no avoiding it. I believe it is our goal to try to make sure those changes are for the better. What I have learned is that some people will adjust to me changing and others won't. Sometimes that hat can hurt but I can only share my experiences, not make people understand what I have gone through and accept my new perspectives on life. Honestly, even if someone went through the exact same experiences as I have does not mean they would come out of the experiences with the same viewpoint as myself because we are all so different. It is what makes life interesting...and sometimes frustrating.

@hopeful33250 Teresa, you are right of course, I know that from my own personal experience.
I would hope to convince my stepson that it is in his best interest. He is not a warm and fuzzy person but he seems to enjoy conversing with me and I think he respects my opinions (except politically). I think at gathering such as I mentioned I spend more time talking to him than my husband does, which is why I think maybe, just maybe, he would listen to me and consider what I say.
