First I like to personally thank you for sharing your story to all the suffers on both support boards. Without it I would not have been able to make an educated decision with my health care. I am in full support to open and honest communication. Furthermore I encourage everyone to do their best with educating others about ARD. I'm amazed that something so simple is so complex. Sally, your a wonderful and caring person what other intention would you have but to help other suffers... Stay don't leave we need you!!!!
