thanks for that (and this is a bit off-topic!)

Thanks for the pat on the back Kellie,

I don't know where my sudden burst of activist energy is coming from...

Maybe it is tied to how easily I get pissed off when I see something so obviously beneficial being ignored for no apparent reason. I get just as annoyed with Big Business when they "trip over dollar bills to pick up pennies", as the saying goes, all in the interest of saving money.

Or maybe its just a bit of PMS this month and not enough progesterone cream? :-)

Whatever the case may be- if I can be of any help to the MS community, then maybe (just maybe) when it is my turn on the diseaseOwheel to hopefully get a clinical trial going- well, I would hope that everyone would jump on my bandwagon, too!

It just seems so painfully obvious to me that LDN has benefits for so many different illnesses. So the f#*% what if it won't bring in big bucks for the super-pharma mafia!If enough of us walking (and wheeling) wounded start screaming from the mountain tops something is bound to happen. An avalanche of support is a great start!

Oh hell, or maybe I'm just channeling the spirit of Florence Nightengale this week?

Just keep me posted on what you hear from the ministry in OZ and I'll continue on this side of the pond.

BTW, could I coerce you into shipping me some Sorbolene E Lavender Lotion, Gummi Snakes, and Hair Fudge? :-) I got hooked on these items when I lived on Guam. I made regular pilgrimages to Cairns just to stock up on Cherry Ripe and all my other favorites. No worries. My DH just did a quick stocking trip for me on a short layover in Cairns...I just wish he could bring me home some Cherry Ripe Icecream Bars! Talk about sex on a stick!

Okay, enough Off-Topic chitchat for tonight.

Best,

Lara
