well, this is my first post. I don't want to sound antagonistic, as I enjoy this forum, it's mostly full of positivity, helpfullness, and hope. Yet I'm kind of concerned for the younger PALS (20-45 year olds) who come onto this forum and read posts from older PALS stating how they don't believe stem cells will work in their lifetime/or how a cure won't be found in their lifetime, but are confident that this will all work out down the road - well, think about that 22 year old who was just diagnosed/who has been fighting the disease... how that most definitely takes the wind out of their sails. It's easy for a person 55+ to say this, seeing as they've lived over twice as as this younger PAL, or a 30 year old, or whatever. That 22 year old receives the same prognosis: 2-5 years. Think about it. Just a thought...
Thanks
