Anthony, So , I was right (on ACOLUG), you do have Cerebral Palsy , I know
what you are saying here , too. I had to have an personal aide in school
(and still do). My senior year's (of high school) substitute said the same
thing to me and I will been praying ever since for a cure for Cerebral Palsy
(twice a day). And , maybe , that's wrong of me to do that. (Somebody ,
please correct me , if this is the case.) Anthony, perhaps we should take
this discussion to private E-Mail to be curious to the other Cerebral Palsy
ListMates.
Thanks,
Kathy
