Thanks for passing this along, it's an interesting concept. As for the 50% statistic, I'm with Linroth, it's just a number and not us.

David, I'm crying for you - especially since we had snow flurries today and going to have a deep freeze tonight. Do you need us to send you down a sweater? I don't want to think of you shivering down there in that 50 degree weather.

In the past month Jack's dry mouth has really improved. We don't know if it's the 6 month mark post treatment or the acupuncture but he's eating more things that he couldn't swallow before. We're not questioning it.

Regards JoAnne
