A few years ago I came down with an odd neuromuscular disorder that has slowly become debilitating. After 18 months of tests with a dozen different doctors I was referred to Mayo Clinic in Minnesota. More doctors and extensive tests confirmed a preliminary diagnosis of ALS.

Whoa! Blast from the past for me. I read this site all the time back in the 2000s and honestly had no idea it was still around. Sorry to read about Ron's medical troubles and I wish him well in addition to sending a big thanks for the years of excellent content I received.
