I spoke with my mother on Facebook video chat today.  I haven't seen her in 3 YEARS!  I was so overcome with emotion, my face turned red from crying.  I had no idea that my computer had this ability.  It took my 17 year old nieces request for me to even realize I could do this and my sons help to install this technology for me.  What a nice, nice gift.  For a while I forgot about my sickness and all the ills of my life and visited with my family.
