You fill out a form from time to time and they respond with suggestions. I have found them to be most helpful and supportive. For example, here is a partial quote from the message I received in August. "Your disease has remained approximately stable. This, in itself, represents progress, since there has not be an advance of the disease. We would like to see actual improvement in your disease over the long term, so work hard at the suggestions that follow and those you have been given previously." They had much more to say, but as you can see, they give specific suggestions for the problems I indicate, but they are the only ones I have found who keep saying that I might improve. Just having it said, makes me feel better. Helen Helen Ormsby : [log in to unmask] Eagle River, Alaska 99577 USA
