I was one of the statistics in the first trials of Interferon......way back then.....it IS a darn good feeling to know that you were one of those that will (or in my case would) one day make a difference.

Cheryl -

That is great! That project looks quite promising - though I find myself wondering what the definition is of early stage MS. :Scratch-Head:

Taffy -

You made me laugh...and smile...and considering I've eaten all of my girl scout cookies - I didn't think that would happen tonight!

Thanks everyone. My year is up on April 1. At that appt I get the protocol for the Open Label TERMS study. It's another year. Yeah! As long as I keep making those gobbs of Myelin Reactive T-Cells, I am in!

Oh yeah, and I can't make the Study Nurse nurse really really mad...so far, I've not done that. I think I came close once, but she got over it! ;)
