   Again, my sympathies.   
      
   As I recall, Sue had a complicated health situation. It must be   
   comforting to see her photographic artistry daily.   
      
   My mother was left with heart damage from childhood rheumatic fever   
   and it caused problems for her later in life.  I developed a murmur as   
   an adult, but when I next see the cardiologist, I will ask if it might   
   have had anything to do with the rheumatic fever I had in my early   
   20s.  I am not sure I ever told that doc about it. Thank you for   
   reminding me.
