Pam,your exactly right. This will be a monster challenge for us to get this into a working mode. If your Dr hesitates then simply ask him " Dr are you really wanting to help me or are you just pretending that you want to help. This will cost you nothing and will give you the latest avaliable information on TM. There is no way your Doctor can be hurt by accessing this data-base. WE're talking about something that has never before been offered to any Dr. Real time instant life saving information at his finger tip." If your Dr. hesitates or desires not to get involved, then you are probably seeing the wrong Dr. My Dr. only sees 2 TM patients and she told me that she thinks that this would pave the way for her to get vital information necessary for my treatment. She did not hestitate to give me everything about her contact information. She is a hard case but being a very good and caring Dr. she told me that this is exactly what she needs in order to better understand just what w! e are d ealing with in the world of a TMer. Pam it will take alot to get this working. Dr. Kerr and his staff must get involved also Because he and his research team are the key, We have got to find a way to get our latest information into this data-base. I'm sure Sandy will figure all of this out but we all have to talk to our DRs. and get them involved or this will never materialize. Everyon here has to put on their thinking caps and work together as a team or this will not work. But it can and will work. Impossible needs to be a word that no longer exists in our vocabulary. Thanks Rick
