Hey Rob,

I totally know what you mean, "not sure if we can handle another 50 years with AS." One bright ray of hope I did read is that for MOST people the disease sort of burns itself out as you age. Like it's not at all as severe as when you are young. I'm 34 right now, so I'm hoping by my grandma years I'll be able to golf and tour the country with some fuzzy dice hanging from the mirror of my large motorhome. The most important thing for us is to keep moving and keep our posture up as straight as possible, because those 2 factors will dramatically effect our state in later years.

That's awesome that you live down under. (Do you really call it that, of course I learned it on TV!) I've always wanted an accent like that. Did you see the movie "Australia?" (It was probably a requirement where you live, right?) What a beautiful country you live in. They had great scenery footage in that film.

sorry I'm so silly tonight-must have sleep-making fool of self

Take Care,
Donette
