Rachael, Welcome to Cf and the Bp forum. So very glad you found us!!! You will find we are accepting supportive and welcoming here! I tend to get a little obsessive about things as well. . . ah, well, God loves us just as we are, bumps and wrinkles and all. I live in the Pacific Northwest. I have two kids in college, both to graduate this year-though how you can have kids two years apart and they graduate the same year, , ,hmm

i deal with BP2, my Dad and my son also deal with bp2. Too much in my family. . . Mum's can be wonderful, but they do tend to worry even when we are as old as we are (translatation: I am in my forties also. . .well at least for a few more months. . .)

I will just say hello and we look forward to seeing more of you areoudn the forum!

Laurie

Racheal, welcome This is perfect place for you, we welcome you with open arms. Its wonderful to hear that you have found Christ, and as a new Christian we can guide you when ever you need it and encourage you, as brothers and sister in Christ that is what we are called to do. I hope we accomplish both for you.
again welcome and God bless
