A Supporters View....RichCon

You clusterheads are amazing...brave and strong! Suffering as you do and still living your lives, laughing, sharing and supporting each other with such compassion and love. I'm humbled and awed by you all...each and every time I'm with you. I swear there isn't a more unselfish group anywhere on this earth. We supporters can advocate for you, do research, promise you it will get better, help hold you up when it really gets bad, love you, etc. But....we still don't know what it's really like to live your lives. As a supporter I salute each and every one of you! Now....some have asked what OUCH is doing or does. In my opinion....they don't have to do a damned thing except hold the convention. This convention saves lives and gives hope. All one has to do is watch the newbies...the ones who thought they were all alone and you know that's what it's all about. Of course OUCH does more but the convention is sooooo very important....even to those who aren't always able to attend. THANK YOU OUCH!!!! It was wonderful to meet the new folks and see old friends again. I sure did miss some of you though... I love you all.... Jackie

| VERY well said, Jackie!! And Lizzie is right - you raise the bar when it comes to class. If it weren't for you, we'd be a pretty motley bunch!

| Jackie... You are...and always have been my Angel. I could write many pages on how your support, love and friendship has changed my very being. I'm in awe....everytime I see you, talk to you, or think about you. Your undying support has helped not just me, but many many others here. You're a first class, top notch supporter....and undoubtedly my best friend in the whole world. Thank you for all the support, all the love, and most of all..thank you for the great friendship. You are..the sunshine in my life. I love you, Jean
