To all my good friends on this forum: I am glad to report that my health crisis has been passed, and things are looking up for me. I want to thank you all sincerely for all of your prayers and good wishes. You are a great group of friends with a common interest in modeling, and I am honored to be one of your group.
Since the crisis has passed, I have asked the forum moderators to close my thread now. I do appreciate all of your concerns and kind words, but this thread is now obsolete, so it will end now.
Thanks to all!
Chuck
