Inga,
I don't have a translation right off. However, just to mention one point in your post, Sanskrit is a totally different language from Tocharian B. There are many loan words in the two Tocharian languages from Sanskrit, but it's not the same language.
The quote you give does look like Tocharian, not Sanskrit.

> Hi, my name is Inga Garner and I have been assigned a critical thinking assignment for my Interpersonal Communications class. For two days I have search the internet in hopes of translating this message and have been unsuccessful. From what I've learned, this is an Indo-European language called Tocharian B, that is now extinct. It is also known as Kuchean or Sanskrit language. Can anyone help me translate this message or give me a web site that could help me?
