Hello Grace, That is wonderful news. What a great way to get the word about regarding Devic's. And you are a survivor of this horrible condition. Please let everyone know when this will be aired and on what network. I live in Calgary and hopefully will be able to see it here as well. Maybe once it has been shown on TV they will allow you to have it put onto the TM/Devic's website.

On Wednesday, I filmed a segment for the Discovery Health Channel's *Mystery ER* It will follow my initial misdiagnosis and subesequent diagnosis with Devic's NMO. it was done at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center's Kaufmann Building, where my neuro and infusion suite are located. It went well, and was not intimidating at all. The only really negative thing is that I had to do the filming without my teeth. I recently had to have them all removed as a result of steroid induced bone loss, and do not have dentures yet. (I saw myself on the monitors and I looked terrible!) Still, it is a small price to pay for the opportunity to get the word out about Devic's NMO. On Tuesday, they will be flying to Denver to interview my son for the segment. It will air in the summertime. I'm so happy that I have had this opportunity.
