    Hello @bettyboop1960   Pleased to meet you welcome.

    Thank you for joining and sharing. Sorry to hear this.

    Have you considered as my friend @CockneyRebel has said.

    A mandatory reconsideration .

    I am one of the team of community champions who guide, advise and help new members who join.

    Have a look on our website for further information.  Please also if you can consider speaking to CAB.

    They can help you with this to give you reassurance.

    Please ask any questions some one will know from our team or community.

    We are friendly, care and share. Also supportive.

    Please take care.
