Janice, I can tell yo someting about Booy Jim, alias el bobberino... He's one of the great caretakers that are online with us.... he came online sometime in late 90's........after a second bout, his wife was diagnosed with MS...at that time he started giving her a weekly shot and she's had no recur- rence! He is retired postal employee from San Fransisco who moved to Memphis upon retirement to be near his wife's family prior to her onset tm. That's all I can remember.........but need to repeat what a great caretaker he is....along the lines of Sandy Parker............. janh Stillwater OK

Tell us about your wife, your ages, how long with TM, email address, etc. Again, only if you are comfortable with it. We are inclusive, not snoopy. We just want to know who all is out there with TM and something about how they are handling it.

I have been curious about something for a while and since things have kind of slowed down, want to ask you all what you did before TM hit and if you were able to go back to it or if you are doing something new. I am including even those who just read these emails and don't usually respond. I would like to hear from everybody and would think all of us would be interested. I will start: I was a school nurse's secretary/assistant in a large high school for 19 years. I absolutely loved it - everyday was different, as you can imagine working with high schoolers! Our school nurse was gone a lot to other schools we were responsible for, so I was left alone quite a bit and handled many different situations. I was well trained for this and it was great. Janice
