Gary,

I have held you in the highest regard from the moment I met you last December. I have the utmost respect for you and the service you are doing in His name for others to gain knowledge and courage to fight this beast we all have. As I read your post today, I kicked you up a notch, even! God has truly blessed me to cross paths with all the folks on this forum. I have learned more, I have asked more questions, I have taken a more active role in my survival. Thanks to all!

Ed
