Gilly,
I think we are all a little unconventional and that is a good thing - we look 
at life a little differently now.Don't be
shy with us.

  That's very kind of you Jan :)), I just don't often to have something 
constructive to say these days.  I think too maybe I'm a bit too unconventional 
in my approach to help many of the new people.  Of course, I didn't really need 
to tell you that, did I?  :))

G'day All,

It's been such a long time since I've written to the list but I 
assure you, I've been reading and keeping up with you all.  I was devastated to 
hear we have lost another member of our family.  R.I.P.  Rick.

I've bought myself out of posting retirement today because 
something so special has happened!  I have just said goodbye to my 
visitors.  They are Allen and Andrea Southern.  Andrea is a member of our list, 
a lurking member but a member none the less.

After 8 years of tm I've never met another person in the flesh 
who has it.

We had a lovely visit and I can't begin to describe how wonderful 
it was to have a real life conversation with another tmer.

OK, I won't ramble anymore but I did so want to share with you all.

Kevin, we didn't spend the whole time talking about our symptoms etc, perhaps 
just how we cope daily with the situations that arise.  Our husbands were with 
us and of course it was very helpful for them too.  There were times when we 
actually talked about entirely unrelated tm topics but it always came back to 
tm.

How are your beautiful canes coming along?  

hugs

  Gilly, that is wonderful...I know how cool it was for me when I met two other 
TMr's here locally for the first time. It was kind of goofy because the whole 2 
hours or so of our conversation consisted of comparing symptoms and such but it 
was such a comfort I guess, knowing that there were others right there in front 
of me, that knew exactly what I had and was experiencing. It kind of gives you 
something of a special bond that you don't always experience with other 
friends
  Here's to your continued friendship with them...
  Take care,
  Kevin

G'day Janice, 

I know what you mean about our list, they most certainly saved me and it's 
always wonderful to know you are all here.  Having Andrea here in the flesh was 
just something else again.  Also the fact that our residuals are just so 
similar was especially bonding.

What a thrill for you to meet some of my fave peeps :))!!!  I was so sorry to 
hear of Jim's death, it's amazing how much it affects me.  I would never have
