Thankyou, BlueSwede.... like I said, it still hurts (always will, I suppose) but I had some good friends around me when I found out, which helped more than I can ever tell them!

Regards being a nurse, it's not something I'd even considered til I was in my mid-twenties....... I liken it sometimes to being an actor, or a comedian; you put on your "professional self" almost like a suit....... and take it off again when you don't need it anymore! Has worked for me for 16 years now, and I'm still enjoying the job!!

Pix........ well, I'm working on it (getting BRAVE enough, I guess!!) One day......................
