Hello Al,
This evening I decided to start at the first post of this forum to get to know you folks from the beginning, and came upon one of your first threads entitled "Where is everyone?" In it you say "I know it is hard for some PALS to do the computer thing but it is not impossible. Let's try to communicate more and get this forum up to what it was originally designed for. I have talked on email with some people from here and they are some of the nicest people and most helpful people that you would ever want to meet. This forum needs to get back on its feet. Don't let ALS beat us. Let's beat it to death with knowledge and participation. An informed group is a group willing to venture into the unknown. We are into unknown territory with most of this disease but by keeping informed and staying in touch we just might be able to beat it."
I just want to thank you for your many posts, for your knowledge which you so freely share with others, for your inspiration, for your welcome to new PALS, CALS, etc.
I hope you are getting on okay. It is going on four years since your post quoted above which was dated 8/4/2004. I know many, many people are indebted to you for your consistent participation, helpfulness, and encouragement. This forum certainly is thriving now and you were definitely correct when you said that the people here are some of the nicest and most helpful people you'd ever want to meet.
All the best to you and to all PALS and CALS,
Jane
