Well, you are now committed to that role regardless, a role I've assumed twice 
for a total of 5 because they came with the woman.  I won't say I did it well, 
but that was long ago and far away.  Those that survive are long since adults, 
MD and CP were involved, so 2 have passed, 2 are long out of touch.  The 5th 
one left at 16, sick of his mother, and is over in Maryland doing takeoffs for 
a large electrical contractor and may not call for a year at a time.  With 11 
kids that have sat at my table over the years, he, and 4 boys 1200 miles west 
in Nebraska are the ones that still keep in touch.  The two girls I fathered 
have both passed from cancer now, the last one just this past November.

I was under the impression you had roots in Au land that would be hard to pull 
up.

Sounds ambitious, best wishes and good luck to you all.
