    Thank you BCR for this update! I also want to send out heartfelt thanks to all the great people watching Ustream and keeping a close eye on Rufus. There are a good many people spending hours watching with nothing but healing thoughts and care for this precious little baby. They are from all over the world! <3 Now if we can only get the rest of the world to care this much! Thinking of you everyday, Beth Capps
