I have had a good run in life, and it seems the scales are balancing a bit. Fairly happy, with a marvelous family, a daughter of 27 months, and I am now trying to figure out this disease and how to deal efficiently with it. I find that remaining happy is surprisingly easier than I expected. Maybe a dopamine excess in the brain or something :) Still in the early stages, still able to walk at this time, so we will see what I say a year from now. Good luck to everyone. -Louis
