Guest guest Posted December 12, 2004 Report Share Posted December 12, 2004 Bart have a wonderful trip! I'm sure you will make many more in your lifetime....despite this disease. Keep on living, that's what it's all about. A very happy holiday to you also my friend! Amy G. Changes and additions to igan.ca Just thought I would let you know I've made some changes to www.igan.ca with more on the way. Nothing really major so far - mostly the introductory page and the " About us " page. I've added my personal story to that one, mostly so I won't have to keep boring you all with it here : ) I will be adding a section about the stages of coping with chronic illness, which I think is a useful thing. I will also be making some corrections/changes to the existing material based on suggestions by Dave. I plan to go through all the existing material on the site to make sure everything is still current, and as I do that, I intend to lighten and shorten the material a bit so people will be more inclined to actually read it :-) If anyone happens to spot any typos, let me know. You can proofread a million times and still miss some. For those who have asked, the donations page is open now. Pierre P.S.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2004 Report Share Posted December 12, 2004 Have a great trip Bart. Lucky guy! That's one place I always wanted to go but never got to. I'm fascinated by archeological sites and ancient cities.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2004 Report Share Posted December 12, 2004 Hi Bart, I am so glad you are going to Egypt :-) Enjoy your trip. I can't imagine how deeply touching it would be to climb Mt. Sinai and be at the top at sunrise on Christmas morning to pray. God bless you and keep you safe and healthy on your trip! A very special Holiday to you as well.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2004 Report Share Posted December 12, 2004 Bart, Your post brings tears to my eyes. You have a safe trip to Egypt. We'll be thinking about you when you climb Sinai.
