HEY...I owe some on here an appology!!!

I in no way wanted to insinuate that there was no hope...I believe that as long as a heart is beating and lungs are breathing there is ALWAYS HOPE!!!

I quoted what the Dr told me just to give some perspective on his attitude, NOT to imply that I believe in what he said for a minute.

If anything, I am naive in the belief that strength, conviction and healthy attitudes can conquor many ills.

I even challenged the Drs statement in the same paragraph.

I, in no way meant to cause anyone harm, hurt anyone's feelings, or sound self-centered.

This may seem reactionary, but if you could read the email Glenn wrote to me you wouldn't think so.
