    is the link to the artical that DD1 did for the local paper - hope I'm allowed to post it here....
    What a great article, and what a brave girl. She's done so well to write that, as I'm sure it will help other sufferers. I'm pleased she's making progress, and I hope she continue to reach her goals, give her our love xx

    I've read the thread, but can't remember anything! Sorry. Love and hugs and congratulations and commiserations as appropriate xx
