A recent reader comment (Helps me to toot my horn):

Hey Stuart,

My name is Rita and I subscribe to your newsletter. I just wanted to take a moment and thank you for all you do… J Your newsletter is always informative, and covers such a variety of things – and your website is amazing! I have yet to be able to investigate it all… I need more time in the day, lol. I also wanted to commend you on the way you do your fundraising. You are never pushy, never make people feel guilty, never make people feel they need to give an arm and a leg. The kind of person you are shines thru….

I am 45 and was just diagnosed a year ago. I was on Rebif for several months, and now I am on Tysabri, as my symptoms did not respond to the Rebif and things were progressing – plus it made me wicked sick all the time. I have had a lot to wrap my head around in a very short time, and have spent the past year reading and researching and educating myself. I am in the medical field myself, and have a pretty good working knowledge of things…. But I still had so much to learn, and I keep learning. Knowledge somehow helps give me comfort I guess.. J

Your site has been one I go back to again and again.. I always find something interesting or informative there. Thank you again for all you do, and the time you spend doing it. I just wanted you to know how much your hard work is appreciated…

J Hope you have a great day!

Rita
