Re: Congratulations Irene! Congratulations Irene!!! Such a well deserved honor! I have not been on in a while but saw this elsewhere and just had to log in to congratulate you. What a more than well deserved acknowledgement. So happy to hear of this recognition of your services. Some of you may/may not remember...its because of Irene, who rescued me one night when my world was falling apart...and got me to finally get involved in communicating with those on this site. She saved my sanity that night, the others became friends/fellow posters in Lewy Land with whom we shared our lives/hearts...till the end. Could not have made it through to the end without all of the LBD "family." My thanks forever Irene!  Dianne
