To everyone on the List: I've been incommunicado for a long while, now. To bring you up to date on my brother's situation,(42/6-he's the one who has been hoping for a pallidotomy and whose wife was unconvinced)I have passed on to him (them) the letters that many of you have sent. They have also had discussions with Dr.s Grossman and Krauss @ Methodist in Houston. The result has been great! She (his wife) has become convinced (primarily by Krauss) that P is the way to go. They scheduled him for the Fall and then called to move him up to July 30! WOW! It seems unreal that now things are almost moving too fast. I (we) owe a great deal to the info garnered from this list and I'll continue to be a part of it. I'm hoping to get him online soon, as he could receive all of the benefits of the list, rather than just the info I'm able to send him. A special Thank You to Barbara Mallut, Bob Martone, Vance Lanier,Sherri Cave and others who provided immeasurable guidance. On a different note: "SPELLBOUND" I have a spelling checker It came with my PC; It plainly marks four my revue Mistakes I cannot sea. I've run this poem threw it, I'm sure your please to no, Its letter perfect in its weigh, My checker tolled me sew. ANON RLS [log in to unmask]
