I'm relatively new to the site also and the best thing is the feeling of not being alone and that someone really understands how chrontic, acutee pain affects us as a total person. When I broke my leg almost 5 years ago, totally non-weight bearing and alone mybrokeleg.com was a life-line and inf act was where I first heard about RSD. I feel like I now have another life-line and no longer alone in the struggle. I lived in Seattle for 5 years and I know you have to be looking forward to the next several months before the wet season sets in again. I rember the bumper stickers: "People in Seattle don't tan, just rust" and "Seattle rain festval, Sept 1 to June 1." I'm now in South Carolina and feel bad that I complain that it's raining here -- especially after the horrible drought we've had the last 4 years. Love Seattle but not sure I could deal with the increased pain the rain causes. Bravo to you!! Lynnie "ONE MOMENT CAN CHANGE EVERYTHING!"
