I'm glad your exit from the closet didn't do away with Gene Veritas, a writer and activist I admire. The other fellow you've begun to introduce to us--the one who spoke at Palm Springs--is interesting, too, and I hope to learn more about his career and interests as time goes by. <br />BeverlyUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08983650652048379586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10081281.post-90681090731916940662011-03-16T06:21:42.191-07:002011-03-16T06:21:42.191-07:00Thank you Gene for posting your thoughts. So often...Thank you Gene for posting your thoughts. So often we find ourselves helping others comfort us when talking about HD. This can bring on an unexpected loneliness but then, as one might say to one's self from time to time, "Get over yourself!" The truth is, there are only going to be a few in our lives who get it, and can stick with us through the dark passages. Thank you for noting that both positive and negative gene tests can significantly impact us. I tested negative but not a day passes that I am not living presently with this disease in my life and thinking about a cure. But pearls of joy and happiness still appear, and that is the real miracle of life we can celebrate.Nancy J. Hesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09696099659238248901noreply@blogger.com
