Al:
What a wonderful holiday offering you've brought us: the gift of HOPE!!! When my daughter mailed out her follow-up thank-you postcards to all those who'd contributed ($14,000) to her JDF fund-raising WALK letter, she added the words: "the best news I could give you next year would be to NOT need to send you a letter next year!!!"...I smiled indulgently, thinking "not very likely"...Now thanks to your & Sandra's encouraging post-conference "posts", even sceptical I am allowing myself to get my hopes up!!!! Particularly so because I just learned of a family in Boise, Idaho with 4 children, the youngest of whom are 5 yr old twins, dx'd at age 9 months, whose dad was just paralyzed in a car accident!!!! Think what a cure would mean to this poor family!!!!!!!..........Renee
