Neil,
Thank you for welcoming me aboard! Yes, I've been trying to follow the most clearly defined path I could find. But as you say, things don't always go as hoped or planned.
I've had a few people at the hospital tell me that (although there is no definite data on this) the people who have the most obstacles to fight, with the slowest recoveries, sometimes achieve the most durable remissions. It has been very inspiring to read Ruth's story of the challenges she has faced and overcome, and hear how well she is doing today.
