Default Here's the writer's reply....

We are preparing an M.S. story for this weekend about another family's experience. Prior to publishing Sunday's story, we did extensive M.S. research and had planned to do a story for this weekend's walk. And as you see, our two latest stories focused mainly on Wolf's mental illness, which is separate from his M.S. except that his physical condition led to the bed sores, etc. in jail.

I would challenge your statement about sensationalism. This was one family's experience, and as we all know, each M.S. case, each mental illness case, each individual's case differs.

Thanks for your feedback, and thanks for reading.

I'm having trouble with "we did extensive research". I would be surprised if I hear back from the Editor or President.
