Dear Joanne, Hi, it's me, Sally. It's so good to hear from you. You've been
through so much. What was Germany :Like? Maybe you don't feel like talking
about it, but if you don't mind, I'm really interested. It sounds like your
pain levels have decreased significantly. That is great news. I know you
want no pain at all, as we all do, but a dcrease is good too. Please don't
be discouraged. You sound so strong and focused. Nothing is perfect. We have
to live with what we've got, and you seem to be doing a lot better than
most. That doesn't mean that the board doesn't need you. There's strength in
numbers, especially if we are to gear up and get more research which we
desparately need. We want all the people we can get to help us receive
government attention and more money for research so that we all may be pain
free and live a normal life. All my love, Sally
