[blparent] update on clay and the kids

[Jo Elizabeth Pinto]

Hi, Kate.  I'm really glad to hear from you.  It sounds like you've been 
through the wringer, and not yet quite come out the other side.  Please know 
that my thoughts and prayers are with you.  That's cold comfort, maybe, but 
there's not much else to be said, except you can always write me off the 
list if you need to vent.

Jo Elizabeth
