You may not remember me....I have not posted in 8 mths or so since finding out both of my young children have AS. I am asking anyone reading this to help my children....they both need encourgement. They don't have access to a computer...so if you have the time please write to them!!!!! Please write to my son NOW.... he has tried to end things and just was released from the hosptital yesterday and is not doing well. You all know the story...depressed, losing the things you love. your job, your home, your carrier, the things you love, your family, your independence, all hope for a future. Also, if you have a someone in your live that has AS and how they deal with your AS.. Please direct your letter to thier sign. other. Please talk to them about how you manage with your loved ones AS. Please do not tell them that pain meds are the only answer because dr. will not prescribe any longer because of family history of addiction. My son has lost all hope and I fear I will lose him soon. Please write to him ASAP. I have read many of your posts and believe you all are careing individuals with special gifts...please extend your gifts to my children if the form of letting them know you care. This is URGENT!!!

My Son:
Jason Lindvall

Has a 3 year old daugher...his light of his life!! And another one on the way (he is worried he can no support them as he has not been able to work in over 1 year). My son is the hardest worker I have ever seen, and breaks his heart that he can no longer do what he loves. Is engaged to the mother of both of his children...they have many problems because of AS.
