Re: Early stage treatment discussion
Hi Jean,
As you know, there is always room here for polite, respectful disagreement.
Why would it be especially important for the "newer members who are early stage" to view the information in the link?
They happen to be the ones who would be the least informed, most upset and panicked, and the most vulnerable to answers that imply that there is a quick fix available that will save them if they just jump on board ASAP.
