Hi Mike,

Well, you've name your website appropriately, the

photos are shocking. As a mother, my heart goes out to

you, I can't imagine my children having to endure the

pain and frustration you probably deal with on a daily

basis. I have PA, but am fortunate to have only ever

had a small patch of psoriasis on my foot. It's a

shame that in this age of modern medicine that more

can't be done to help you and others like you.

As shocking as it is, I understand your obligation to

increase awareness of psoriasis. I admire your

courage, and pray for a " cure " for all who suffer from

this wretched disease.

warm blessings,

jane

Hi Jane,

Thanks so much for the email, and thanks for visiting the website. I've

gotten such a great response so far, and continue to receive encouragement from

many people, and I'm looking forward to continually updating it. It has been

interesting for me to see the response from family and friends, as I think so

many people are just unaware of how bad psoriasis can get. I am looking forward

to starting Orencia trials later this month, and it would be nice to get some

relief. On the website, a new video section will begin next week, with new

videos added weekly. I've also received some feedback from others with

psoriasis, that they would be willing to post their own pictures on the website,

so a guest " flakers " section will be underway starting in Dec. Thank you again

for the email and great feedback. Take care.

Best wishes,

Mike
