Holiday thoughts and thanks

[Guest guest]

Folks on both lists, I feel I need to add my hope to everyone that they are

having a great holiday, and for those who are having a rough time this

season, hang in there, it will get better. I know last year our Christmas

was not the best, on the 24th of December, I got my first diagnoses that I

had a terrible disease. It wasn't a very merry christmas... Since they

didn't know for certain if I had PLS/HSP or PPMS I spent the next few months

getting more opinions, they finally settled on PLS or HSP... That was in

March and so I started to look for support groups and I found these two

lists. Next to my family this has been the best thing to have happened to

me since getting this disease. Even though this summer they agreed I had

PLS I couldn't leave the HSP list, I felt too much like family and so stayed

(ok, maybe the black sheep of the family, but your stuck with me ;-)...

So to bring my ramblings to a close I want to thank all of you for helping

me get through the hardest year of my life. I truly don't know what I would

have done with out my e-family...

I keep you all in my heart and my thoughts.
