Re: Not good news..
Thank you all for the replies. By the way I do not think that my friends are insensitive they are just living a normal life, we are not at a diner party to feel sorry about me, no thanks I would not want it any other way it's just that I am the one who fell of the wagon. I used to know of people that did fell of the wagon and now it's me.. but life continues..
Anyhow I am looking at trials and who knows I may be the one for whom the drug works really well next time.. or a phase one that turns out to help us all wouldn't that be nice for a change, wouldn't that be nice..
It's been snowing here.. spring hey!?
