Well, Alice, I am quite honored, indeed. It just amazes me at the people
who are reading me, have subscribed. I don't know. This just started as a
family thing, and mushroomed. Doing this sort of thing is not new to me as
I own domains, and was deep into Web Ring in the 90s, so just another
similar expression, but this one without as many limitations. Just me,
myself, and I.
I am wanting to add my diabetic portion of my life, but must be very careful
not to extend myself too far. I am not physically dependable enough, and I
think I am just barely getting my feet wet. There is still much for me to
learn. I am getting lots of Google search hit for IVIG and IVIG side
effects, actually showing up in the first ten because there is so little
information about IVIG and MG. This is the reason I went public. There is
research, but where is it going? I get reports from MGNet, a Yahoo group,
and Muscular Dystrophy has its research, as the Mayo, but how long is it
going to take. We're talking autoimmune disease, and we both know how vague
that can be. I've decided I'm not going to die so I can be around to see a
cure for MG. Encouraging is a woman I have met who was also bedridden and
wheelchair bound, who is running marathons today. Now, she was much younger
than I, and MG was all she had. That was the first thing Jim asked, was
what else was she contending with. He is always there to bring me back to
reality whenever I get Hope out there too far. Rather like the diabetes
cure in five year thingy that's been around over and over. I still have to
have that goal, though. It is what keeps me going, gives me the umph for
each day, and even then I fall short some days. I think mixing my old
stories, and other daily experiences in helps me from staying at the bottom
whenever I fall down there. Like, I think it's about time for the old red
scoop to find another memory. Thought I had one back during the snow, but
snow didn't last long enough for me to get it recalled and written.

Might be enjoyable after the mess of last week, which I just finished
publishing, btw.
