Hello all: Isn't it a shame that we must share our disease with yet another gifted & talented young person? If we are correct in assuming his identeity, maybe we could all e-mail him (after the article comes out, naturally). I had his e-mail address a couple of months back and e-mailed him, begging him that if it were true, to contact us for support & caring & understanding, not that I think I had anything to do with any of this announcement! I will get his e-mail adress again and we could write to tell him of our special place here and the links to the other sites that we all find so comforting. May God bless him & us all for the road ahead. -- --- Joan Snyder (47/10/8) <[log in to unmask]> Peoria,IL "Do or do not. There is no try." Yoda http://www.newcountry.nu/pd/members/snyder/page1.htm
