We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

In reply to: Cat9 's message, "ONE MORE WEEK TILL THE WALK! (And a big "THANKS!")" on 17:32:48 09/20/03 Sat

As many of you know, my great-aunt passed away from ALS earlier this year. She was in great shape for a long time, able to walk, talk, etc., and it shut her down very quickly (went right for that part of the brain that keeps your heart pumping and your lungs moving). We felt very, very blessed that she was spared a long decline, but we miss her so much.

All forms of autoimmune disorders (ALS, MS, lupus and other collagen diseases, etc.) seem to be on the rise. Doctors are only beginning to figure out how the immune system works, let alone what makes one go haywire.
