Dear Etta, Michele, Badger, Tom and Eva:
Thank you very much for your very kind replies. I very much appreciate your taking the time and write.
I am on my way to overcome the fear. I have just bought a train ticket and visit my aunt this weekend. A first stepp.
Dear Etta, all the best for your SCT next week. My thoughts and good wishes are with you.
All the best to you all and I hope meeting you again here in the forum.
Kind Regards from rainy Berlin/Germany
Elfriede
