Comments: I am fifty one years old now and after almost 20 years the Veterans Affairs finely granted me service connection for MS that first appeared while I was in Nam. It took almost 10 years for it to be diagnosed. I am lucky, at this point I can honestly say that having MS is not all that bad. Getting the VA to admit that I got it, while I was in the service has been harder. Ha - I am 51 and can still get around, I'm happy. |

Comments: Hey Tom, I love what you've done to your website!! I think everyone of Our extended MS family with a website should join the MS Webring!! It would be one stop knowledge!!! I think your bulletin board should go at the end of your site before or after the other MS links...either place... perhaps if you refer to it earlier in the website.. |
