<< THE INVISIBLE BODY
When you will not hear my pain
You cannot share my joy
When you will not acknowledge my hate
You cannot feel my love
When you will not allow my weakness
You cannot be supported by my strength
When you will not accept my difference
You cannot appreciate my beauty
When you will not see me
That does not mean I don't exist

but if one looks at the literature on say, facial disfigurement, where
miraculous plastic surgery was done; what follows soon after is a very
deep
depressive state! The individual has blame his/her problems(unconsciously
usually) on their disfigurement. Once it is removed and the same problems
arise, the person is at a loss.
Prayer to connect with an outside source is super for many people,
but it
is wise
to heed the saying, "Be very careful for what you pray for-- you just may
get
it."

Kathy, I know that you're smart and I feel if you would like to have a
cure
some day, you should start looking into what could be done and get grants
and money yourself to begin something. I don't see anything stopping us
from doing something like that because its how everything we have today
got
started actually. >>
