Subject: I've been lucky enough to see the clips of David from the ForDJE board and am also enjoying his character. He is the complete package gorgeous and can act. I think that he took this part because it was interesting, he could spend time with his family and still put himself out there. I think DJE will eventually get back to his own show, but I think that he wants to prove that he can carry a range of characters, however, so far his characters have all been fundamentally like Harm, charismatic, honorable, strong, weak and human. He may not be on for long, but I plan on enjoying him while I can.

[> The thing about DJE's acting is that he does it so well, the characters are so believable. As much as I don't like to see him playing a sick "David", you actually believe it is so and it makes me sad. Even if they don't find a magical cure for MS to keep him on or find out he was misdiagnosed, I too will enjoy the roll for as long as he is on. I think DJE is just enjoying some time with his family to have a life, and it is so nice to see him put his family first. -- Joan D, 16:30:33 02/13/08 Wed [1]

[> [> what surprised me is that he's known her for two years and yet his MS is so bad. I recently discovered that two women I know both have MS and have had it for years. It affects them in ways I couldn't have known about from a lunch or two- but while I was with them - I had no idea. -- chris k, 19:27:06 02/13/08 Wed [1]

[> [> [> The only knowledge I have of MS is from watching The West Wing LOL but from that I understand that you can have "relapse" periods interspersed with long periods of relative normality, so maybe he's going through a relapse period? -- Gibs, 20:38:15 02/13/08 Wed [1]

people with MS who smoked pot had a more diminished cognitive abilities than those with MS who didn't smoke pot. All I could think of was "They're smoking POT!! You had to conduct a study to find out that people who smoked pot were going to have diminshed mental capacities??" LOL

Relapsing-remitting
Relapsing-remitting describes the initial course of 85% to 90% of individuals with MS. This subtype is characterized by unpredictable attacks (relapses) followed by periods of months to years of relative quiet (remission) with no new signs of disease activity. Deficits suffered during the attacks may either resolve or may be permanent. When deficits always resolve between attacks, this is referred to as "benign" MS.
Secondary progressive
Secondary progressive describes around 80% of those with initial relapsing-remitting MS, who then begin to have neurologic decline between their acute attacks without any definite periods of remission. This decline may include new neurologic symptoms, worsening cognitive function, or other deficits. Secondary progressive is the most common type of MS and causes the greatest amount of disability.
Primary progressive
Primary progressive describes the approximately 10% of individuals who never have remission after their initial MS symptoms. Decline occurs continuously without clear attacks. The primary progressive subtype tends to affect people who are older at disease onset.
Progressive relapsing
Progressive relapsing describes those individuals who, from the onset of their MS, have a steady neurologic decline but also suffer superimposed attacks; and is the least common of all subtypes
