Margo, Liv's not doing too badly at all at the moment, she's throwing herself into her work which takes her mind off the darker side of life. We are just so glad that she is clever enough and strong enough to fight back and control her thoughts. Must be terrible for those suffering who can't take control.

I'm so please to hear that Captain, please send her my kind regards x

[Captain2]

Certainly will and thanks again for asking Margo. :))
